How can I set cookie value in one page and read it from another page in a asp.net website

asp.net, c#, cookies

Solution

you basically need to request the cookie it does not really matter on what page you are here is an explanation about cookies

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178194.aspx

HttpCookie aCookie = Request.Cookies["loginCookie"];
string username = Server.HtmlEncode(aCookie.Value);

Problem

This is my code in Login.aspx ``` protected void LoginButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { HttpCookie loginCookie1 = new HttpCookie("loginCookie"); Response.Cookies["loginCookie1"].Value = LoginUser.UserName; Response.Cookies.Add(loginCookie1); } ``` And this is in shop.aspx ``` protected void btnAddCart_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { HttpCookie myCookie = new HttpCookie(dvProduct.DataKey.Value.ToString()); myCookie["Category"] = dvProduct.DataKey["Category"].ToString(); myCookie["Product"] = dvProduct.DataKey["Product"].ToString(); myCookie["Quantity"] = txtQuantity.Text; myCookie["Price"] = dvProduct.DataKey["Price"].ToString(); myCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1d); Response.Cookies.Add(myCookie); Response.Redirect("ViewCart.aspx", true); } ``` I want to read the value of username from cookie(value set in login.aspx
