I have a poll voting system, in the poll.asp page I have the voting part and the result part. Now I need to know how I can show the right part depending on a cookie.

The voting part appears when the cookie not exists, and the result part appears when the cookie exists. Now I all figured out how I want to do it but I can't find the code.

a example :

< if cookie not exists >

VOTING SYSTEM

< Else if cookie exists >

POLL RESULTS

<end if>


When someone made a vote the page redirect him to a Thankyou.asp page where the page creating the cookie, after 1 second the page redericts him back to the vote page where the results will be shown because the cookie now exists.

This is a idea, now my question is where i can find the right code ? I'v been looking for it by my coding experience is not so well. Can someone give me an example of the show if code / creation cookie code ?

Thank you,

In VBScript:

Create a cookie:

<%
Response.Cookies("SomeDomain"("Voted" = "Yes"
%>

Check/Retrieve a value in a cookie:

<% If Request.Cookies("SomeDomain"("Username" = "Yes" Then %>
POLL RESULTS
<% Else %>
VOTING SYSTEM
<% End If %>
