This is a small ASP (Microsoft Active Server Pages) application that implements basically work with cookies.
The project has next main-functionality:

The page contains a help that make your work easy with the project. The sample is ready to use.
Details
The project has three important parts:
- Test if the client browser support cookies.
For that I use the Browser Capabilities component (“MSWC.BrowserType”)
set objBrowserCapabilities = server.CreateObject("MSWC.BrowserType")
' ...
blnSupportCookies = objBrowserCapabilities.cookies
' ...
- Read and display cookies
For that I use the Request.Cookies collection. (See the ASP built-in objects.)
- Write cookies to client browser
For that I use the Response.Cookies collection. (See the ASP built-in objects.)
Usage
The cookies have two forms:(See http://www.microsoft.com/info/cookies.htm)
- normal cookies
- dictionary cookies
If you want write a normal cookie then specify a value in the Cookie Name field
(this field is required) and a value in the Cookie Value field. If you want
to write a dictionary cookie first you must type the number of keys (must be great 0) and
then click 'Write cookie dictionary'. The page is then setup with your options and
you can type values for your cookie dictionary. After you put the values in fields click
'Submit'. The cookie is written to the browser and is automatically read and displayed
on the page.
If you don’t set an expire value then your cookie lifetime will end after you shut down the
current session. To extend yours cookies lifetime, you must set the Date and Hour values.
