Hi kevinb,

Before everyone gets into a guessing game....

Quote: first part sent to the second page as a cookie

cookies are not 'sent'; they are written to and retrieved from the user's computer, so there are no cgi/server applications involved.

1) are you actually writing a cookie in the first page
2) are you retrieving it in the second page?
3) if the above is true, you should be able to simply say something like: hiddenField1 = cookieData[0];

How many fields are we talking about? What does your 1st page form tag look like? How are you transferring control to the the second page? What does its form tag look like?

I have done that but I think it may be when all the information passes through the cgi script it gets lost there. Could that be the cause, do I need to add something to the cgi script to make it send me the cookie information as well.

Thanks for your help

Hi kevinb,

Have you tried assigning the first page's field values to hidden fields within the second page form?
