I am using Cookies with Active Server Pages to save client information. &nbsp;I use the Response.Cookies(&quot;name&quot;)=&quot;<wbr />Joe&quot; to write the cookie and Name=Request.Cookies(&quot;name<wbr />&quot;) to read the cookie. &nbsp;Everything works fine accessing the cookie info within a session, but if the client closes his browser and comes back, the cookie info is lost. &nbsp;I've played with the Response.Cookies.Expires=n<wbr />n code, which makes the cookies not work at all.<br />
<br />
So how does one write a semi-permanent cookie that can be accessed at a later time with ASP/VBScript? Or at least one that expires at a given time in the future?<br />
