Dang. I thought cookies were working on my login page to remember a user's login username, but, it's not so. I've been trying (all morning) different ideas, according to my understanding of the way CF handles cookies, but obviously I am missing something.
I am trying to get my login.cfm page to remember a user's login username between user login sessions. My login.cfm code is below. Currently, the login.cfm page DOES retain a username, but, that username is always: "admin". (??) Even after I log out and clear cookies, the username admin persists in the username login field.
Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?
Thanks again for any help.
Eric
