I need to restore first and lastname from cookie, please help. I am able to retreive the firstname, but can't get it to work when it comes to retrieving the second field (lastname). Here is what I have working for the first field:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
if (!(Request.Cookies["FirstName"] == null))
txtFirstName.Text = Request.Cookies["FirstName"].Value;


Thanks

add your second field to cookie and retrieve it using same way you doin for first field.

How do I go about including the second field?

Do I need to create another Load?

Need format plz

bump

After selecting continue it will go to check out page with items in cart. Next page also has btn that allows me to go back which is supposed to restore cached fname and lname and display it on respective fields. The problem I seem to have is that it only seems to work for the fname field

Check the property of the textboxes. Enableviewstate set to True. Lets see if that solves the state issue

add {} braces when checking for cookies is null or not. when you load you page at first the cookies are not set that's why you are gettin that exception.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)

if (!(Request.Cookies["FirstName"] == null) && !(Request.Cookies["LastName"] == null))
{
TextBox1.Text = Request.Cookies["FirstName"].Value;
TextBox2.Text = Request.Cookies["LastName"].Value;
}
}

Also, remember if you have more than one line of code in you if ALWAYS PUT CURLY BRACES around if.

Many Many thanks to everyone. {} did the trick.

Thanks again.

Yes cr7. There is no curly braces so its just taking one line after the condition. Lol
