HttpCookie myCookie = new HttpCookie("MyTestCookie");DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
// Set the cookie value.
myCookie.Value = now.ToString();
// Set the cookie expiration date.
myCookie.Expires = now.AddYears(50); // For a cookie to effectively never expire
// Add the cookie.
Response.Cookies.Add(myCookie);
Response.Write("<p> The cookie has been written.");
Reading a cookie
HttpCookie myCookie = new HttpCookie("MyTestCookie");
myCookie = Request.Cookies["MyTestCookie"];
// Read the cookie information and display it.
if (myCookie != null)
Response.Write("<p>"+ myCookie.Name +"<p>"+ myCookie.Value);
else
Response.Write("not found");
