Yesterday I posted the message under. Now I have found out more what the
problem really is. I have an application where all components are protected.
If you are not logged in, only a login component is shown. I use a cookie to
remember the login. When a user tries to access a component and is not
logged in, the application asks the request for the cookie.

I need to use this in my application because it shall be used in a frame on
a regular HTML-page. The top frame is a toolbar and my application will be
called with a "clean" URL the whole time. When I call my application by
pushing one of the buttons in the toolbar from the top frame, the
request().cookieValueForKey() returns only null in Main. Maybe this is
because the request-object is different now when I'm not requesting the page
from within my application? How can I solve this?

Thanks in advance!!

Subject: Problems with cookies and frames!!


WO4/NT4:

I'm using cookies in my application to hold information that a user is
logged in. When my application runs alone in the browser, all works fine.
The cookie is set and I can read it in again.

But my application shall work in a frame on a regular HTML-page, where the
top frame includes a toolbar and the buttom frame shows a regular HTML-page
or my application depending on what the user pushes on the toolbar. When my
application runs in a frame, the browser returns a message that the cookie
is set, but I can't read it in again. The method only returns null.

I set a very general cookie with only the path set to "/". What do I do
wrong? Is it possible at all to get the cookie when my application runs in a
frame?

Thanks in advance!!
