cookie's detect then open one div and close the other not working??

antonyfal · September 20, 2011

Hi,

I had this little script setup before and it worked like a charm, even posted in this forum for others. I am now trying to apply it somewhere else on my site and it doesn't work now!?.

What happens is i load a cookie with X name and then this will detect the cookie and load the one div and close the other div, if no cookie then the opposite happens..

Below: if the cookie exists then the div id="registerd" should be display block, and unregistered should be display none.. Im getting no display at all and when i check, the cookie is set.

//to note:

maybe it makes a diiference, but the file placing the cookie is in another folder on the server? IE: folder/folder/folder/folder and the file looking for the cookie is in folder2/folder2/folder/folder2... Just for example..

i just put an edited version here, maybe it would be easier to read:

i place the cookie with this code:

document.cookie ="todaysfiles=1";

</script>

both pages are .html files

// here is page that looks for cookie

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<head>

<appmail:include file="/includes/links.html" />

function checkregCookie() {

registeredDiv=document.getElementById("registered");

unregisteredDiv=document.getElementById("unregistered");

if (document.cookie.indexOf("todaysfiles")!=-1) {

registeredDiv.style.display="block";

unregisteredDiv.style.display="none";

} else {

registeredDiv.style.display="none";

unregisteredDiv.style.display="block";

}

</script> //cookie check funtion ends here

</head>

<body>

<!-- Here's the "registered" DIV element // start of registered div object

It doesn't display until the cookie is set -->

<img src="/images/appmail_logo.png" border="0" alt="<appmail:object name='productname' />" hspace="10" />

<appmail:object name="message" id="message" />

<table>

<appmail:object name="domaingroups" />

<tr>

<td>

<appmail:object name="domainselector" />

</td>

</tr>

<tr>

</td>

</tr>

<tr>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

</form>

</div>

<div> // end of registered div object

// here is start of unregistered div object

<font color="#ff0033"><b>You do not have permission to access this Area.<br>Please Login and try again.<b></font>

</div>

//check for the cookie and display DIV

checkregCookie();

</script> // unregistered div object ends here

var d = new Date();

document.getElementById("rcmlogintz").value = (d.getTimezoneOffset() / 60) * -1;

</script>

</body>

</html>

thanks for that: i tried the in the first attempt and my last one i tried :-[ . Can you take a crack at solving this one for me? do you have any ideas why the cookie function is not working? is it because the files are in folder's apart? or maybe because they are in different apps? please i need to get this working.. im still battling with it.

best regards
