Cookis Problems

[jgrantham]

I have the following code in my page:

<cftry>
<cfldap action="QUERY"
name="auth"
attributes="cn"
start="cn=users,dc=dummyDomain,dc=com"
server="server.dummyDomain.com"
username="dummyDomain\#form.uid#"
password="#form.password#">
<cfset isAuthenticated="yes">
<cfcookie name="Authenticated" value="Yes" expires="#DateAdd('H', 5,
Now())#">
<cfcatch type="ANY">
<cfset isAuthenticated="no">
</cfcatch>
</cftry>

<cfif isAuthenticated EQ "no">
<cflocation url="is_login.cfm">
<cfelse>

Then I have the page as I want it to display. My question is that the cookie
is evidently not ever getting set. How can I use a cookie on this page so that
everytime the page loads it doesn't go to the login page? I want to use LDAP
login to secure this page. Preferably I would also like to narrow it down to a
specific group also.

Thanks for any help.

Hi

I have found that if you set a CFCOOKIE on a page before a CFLOCATION the cookie doesn't get set.
The code isn't going into a CFLOCATION after the CFCOOKIE is it?

It was. I got it fixed by using a javascript like the following:

<Script language="javascript">
document.location.href ="http://mydummysitecom/is_login.cfm";
</Script>
