Cookie

[venkat]

hi

If you close the browser directly then the cookie won't
get deleted. When ever you log off only it will get
deleted. If you close the browser directly and again the
open the browser for the same URL directly it will
display as logged in page.

Are you using RedirectfromLogin("username", boolean) ??
What is the value of the boolean ??? If it is true then it will store a
cookie else it just makes a temporary session and not make a permanent
cookie.

If you want the login to be valid even after the user closes his browser
then set the boolean value to true, else set it to false. The credentials
will be destroyed once the browser is closed or when you call the signout
function.

Is the servertime accurate? I recently had a problem where a tech
screwed up the time on the server (by 8 years!) and cookies stopped
working.
