Request scope and cookies
In ASP, the request scope and cookies are two essential concepts for web development and handling user interactions. Let’s explore both in more detail.
Request scope in ASP
The request scope refers to the lifetime and accessibility of data during a single HTTP request-response cycle in ASP. When a client (typically a web browser) sends a request to the server, the server processes the request and generates a response. During this process, data can be passed from the client to the server (for example, form data, query strings, and HTTP headers) and vice versa (for example, server-generated content).
ASP provides an intrinsic Request
object that allows developers to access data coming from the client in the HTTP request. This object provides various properties and methods to access request data, such as form data, query strings, cookies, and HTTP headers.
The following is an example of accessing form data in ASP using the Request
object:
