    Study Notes

    Purpose of Cookies in ASP.NET

    • Cookies are primarily used to store user-specific information on the client side, enabling session management and personalization of web applications.
    • This allows for data persistence between user requests, such as login sessions and user preferences.
    • The HttpCookie class is utilized to create cookies in ASP.NET.
    • The creation involves instantiating an HttpCookie object and adding it to the Response.Cookies collection.

    Accessing Cookies in ASP.NET

    • Cookies can be accessed via the Request.Cookies collection.
    • A specific cookie can be retrieved by its name, allowing for easy management of user data.

    Behavior of Cookies Without Expiration Date

    • Cookies without a specified expiration date are treated as session cookies.
    • They are automatically deleted when the user's browser session ends, usually when the browser is closed.
    • The HttpOnly attribute should be set for cookies to enhance their security.
    • This prevents client-side scripts from accessing the cookie, reducing the risk of cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
