[thelist] ASP cookies

You could try something like this:

<% cookieVal = cookie Val & "," & request.form("email") %>

This would create a comma-delineated list of email addresses, which can
be looped through by converting to an array (with the split()
function)...

Let me know if you need clarification!

[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
In ASP how can I create a cookie of that will be able to add email
addresses to over a period of time and then retrieve them to make a list
of each.
The idea is when a user puts an email address in a form the cookie
remembers the address. In this application the user would return to the
form often and be using multiple addresses over time. The cookie could
contain 0 or 50 addresses I won;t know.

Then I want to take the cookie and make a list of addresses so the user
can select one to populate the form rather than typing it out.

I'm familiar with cookies, but I'm a little stuck on this one. Any
suggestions? I can create a cookie but I'm not sure how to add to it
without deleting the old. I can add keys but how would I name an unknown
key? Is there a way to check the length when retrieving the cookie?
Thanks
