The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Internet Explorer 8 not storing cookies properly

Asked by snix123 in ColdFusion Application Server, Internet Explorer Web Browser

Tags: IE8, Internet Explorer 8, cookie, ColdFusion

I have a site with a login screen written in Coldfusion 7 MX.  The login screen collects username and password in a form.  Then it looks up the informaiton in the database. If found, the person is logged in.  The username and password cookies are created and stored.  Pretty standard stuff.  

I recently upgraded to IE8 and now when I enter my username and password, the site finds the information correctly and sets the cookie.  Then control is transferred to the member only section of the site.  I use the CFLOCATION tag to transfer control.  Prior to this version of Coldfusion, one could not set a cookie on the same page where one might use the CFLOCATION tag.  The cookie value would not be preserved.  I have been running with Coldfusion MX for years and now this problem seems to have returned.  It is o.k. on IE7 and Firefox.  I tried to just write a javascript snippet with location.href="...", but nothing works.  After I login, it's as if I didn't login.  

I've deleted all the cookies vie IE8 and IE8 is set to Accept all cookies and the override auto cookie handling box is checked along with the accept session cookie box.

Any ideas?

Thanks, experts!!
