HTTPCookie

This property is used in conjunction with the HTTP method of uploading images from a user's local machine to the server.  This property declares that the cookie should be sent with the HTTP request.

Applies To

EditLive Object

Syntax

JavaScript

object.setHTTPCookie( sCookie );   [ sCookie = ] object.getHTTPCookie();

Possible Values

sCookie WHERE sCookie = "<name>=<value> [;<name>=<value>]..."

Required.  String that specifies the Cookie object to be sent with the HTTP POST containing the image data.

This property is read/write. 

Examples

JavaScript

The following example would pass through two cookies.

  function
    window_onload() { editLive1.setEditLiveMode(
    'HTMLString' ); editLive1.setPOSTAcceptorURL(
    'http://www.yourhost.com/upload_script.asp' ); editLive1.setHTTPImageURL(
    'http://www.yourhost.com/images.htm' );editLive1.setHTTPCookie('cookie1=cookieValue1;cookie2=cookieValue2' );
}

The following example would set the Cookie equal to the cookie of the current page.

function window_onload() {
    editLive1.setEditLiveMode( 'HTMLString' );
    editLive1.setPOSTAcceptorURL( 'http://www.yourhost.com/upload_script.asp' );
    editLive1.setHTTPImageURL( 'http://www.yourhost.com/images.htm' );
    editLive1.setHTTPCookie( document.cookie );
}

The following example would create a persistent cookie with an expiry date of January 1, 2002.

function window_onload() {
    editLive1.setEditLiveMode( 'HTMLString' );
    editLive1.setPOSTAcceptorURL( 'http://www.yourhost.com/upload_script.asp' );
    editLive1.setHTTPImageURL( 'http://www.yourhost.com/images.htm' );
    editLive1.setHTTPCookie( 'bobcookie=test1#expires#Tue, 01-Jan-2002 00:00:00 GMT' );
}

Remarks

This property is only relevant if uploading images via HTTP.

The cookie may be a session or persistent cookie.
