Creating Web Services

Creating a Registration Cookie

Written by Eric Smith, Northstar Computer Systems LLC

Many web sites I visit allow me to register and then login once and not have to login again from the same computer. This is typically done by storing a cookie on my machine that is checked upon the next visit. The problem is that if the cookie is deleted, the server doesn't know who I am. A solution to the problem is to provide your users a username and password when they register. If they ever nuke their cookie, they simply login to the system and a new cookie is written to their computer.
