Missing cookie when calling URL outside browser
Hello,
I have a curious handling within my tapestry application. My application has
a login, which is saved in a cookie. When calling the protected page within
the browser using the complete url everything is working fine. The cookie is
found and the user is logged in.
When calling the same URL outside the browser, i.e. Excel with hyperlink,
the cookie is not found, the login is, as a result of the missing cookie,
not executed manually.
Is there a workaround for that problem.
Thanks in advance.
Martin

Thanks Tahe,
that post/trick have solved my problem.
I created a dynamic JavaScript
void setupRender() {
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.append("window.location =\""+getRedirect()+"\" ;");
javaScriptSupport.addScript(sb.toString());
}
and it works without any problems.
Regards
Martin

Hello Taha,
that a cookie is only available within the same the same domain is ok.
I have an application server running my application. I am calling the
application from within Firefox and the cookie is found by the application
server. No probs here. When calling the same url via hyperlink in Excel,
Firefox is started with the url, but the cookie ins't found. When entering
the manually in Firefox URL now , the cookie is found.
In my opinion the ony difference is that Firefox is started by Excel and not
by myself, but there must be a difference. The same behaviour when using IE
or Chrome.
Regards
Martin

Hi Martin
Cookies can only be accessed from the same domain. Also if two applications are trying to access a url e.g. a web browser and microsoft excel, cookie as to be set for both. You can't save a cookie on a browser and expect the excel application to read from the cookie.
regards
Taha
