Question

I am interested on how to make a regular HttpCookie object into a cookie that expires at the end of a session. I am not interested in someone showing me HttpContext.Session. How does a session cookie look in the response headers compared to a normal cookie? How can I modify a HttpCookie to expire at the end of a session? Thanks!

Answer 1

A session cookie is just a cookie that doesn’t have any expiration date set.

Response.Cookies.Add(new HttpCookie('name', 'value')); 

or:

Response.Cookies['name'] = 'value';
