All that's required is one cookie with unique_id value equal to a [cart]. Store your username and password values in a .db, and you'll never need to write new values to the existing cookie. I do this all over my site.For insurance, though, I also pass the unique_id in every URL. Some WebDNA included at the top of every page checks for the cookie first. If that's missing, it looks for unique_id in the URL, and if that's missing or not equal to the cookie value, it creates a new unique_id and sets a cookie with it. No problems so far...:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: : Brian:Drum :::::::::::::::::::: mailto:bdrum@aecsoft.com : : Web:Designer :::::::::::::::::::: http://www.aecsoft.com : : AEC:Software;:Inc.:::::::::::::::: tel:703.450.1980 :::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
