cookies not persisting

| I'm not finding cookies I create to persist. I don't see any corresponding
file in
C:\Documents and Settings\jgrandy\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
and the cookie is not present in the Request.Cookies collection on postback.
Here is how I am creating the cookie :
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("MyCookie");
cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddYears(1);
cookie.Value = "written " + DateTime.Now.ToString();
cookie.Path = "folder1/folder2";
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);

When you set the Path to "folder1/folder2", the cookie will only apply to
files in that folder.
Is your page in that folder?
Secondly, cookies for Internet Explorer are not kept in C:\Documents and
Settings\jgrandy\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files, but in
C:\Documents and Settings\jgrandy\Cookies.

| Cookies show in both folders. I'm not sure why Explorer shows them that way,
and I'm not sure where they actually are located, but that's how Explorer
shows them.
My page is in the folder pointed to by Cookie.Path, but that setting did
turn out to be the culprit. Not sure why.
