See if cookies are off

[oakgrove]

Was searching for a tip on how to find if a user had cookies turned off because our client's upload page needs them on to allow us to set session variables. If they have them off I needed to insert a message saying they could not proceed.

Did find some other useful explaination of the relationship betweeen session variables and cookies and 'Why' cookies need to be on.

At any rate here's how I decide when to put up the message:
<%
if request.ServerVariables(&quot;HTTP_COOKIE&quot=&quot;&quot; then
response.write(&quot;<Br><B><font color=FF0000>Your Browser must allow us to place a temporary cookie on your computer if you want to continue with your submission</font></b><br>&quot
end if
%>
