It can be done. Just as all-star said a cookie is a cookie. We are doing it at TheJobFool.com

If user arrives at a page in ASP.NET, it should be possible for the ASP.NET page to screen scrape the infromation from cold fusion and present it to the user.

If you need screen scrape code, please go the the CommonData project at http://www.CodePlex.Com/CommonData

Is there any others idea how to sharing/passing data between coldfusion and asp.net without using BlueDragon? or not using URL encoded.

Because i need to think about security.

Just to help anyone out who might be facing this problem, I recommend using URL encoded variables to pass the info...assuming you don't have to worry about security (ie, you're just passing an email address or whatever). for instance, if I wanted to pass some URL variables to a ASP file, I might use something like this at the end of my coldfusion form

Then, on thankyou_m.asp I would request("email") and request("first") to grab the variables. Not elegant, but it works.

Stephen's right: you can't share sessions between CF and ASP.NET, but as Vince pointed out above, you can share sessions between your CFML code and ASP.NET if you run that CFML code using BlueDragon, an alternative CFML engine from New Atlanta. The BD.NET edition runs CFML natively on .NET and can not only share sessions but also permits includes back and forth between CFML and ASP.NET, the ability to call .NET classes from CFML using CFObject/CreateObject, the ability to call CFCs from ASP.NET (the latter two are NOT using web services), and much more.

We just point these things out because the common conception (as Stephen noted) is that "CF can't integrate with .NET (other than via web services)". While CF (the engine) can't, CFML (your code) can, if you install BD.NET. It's a native extension to .NET (an httpHandler). More details at the site and in the associated docs.

As far as I know you can not share session information between coldfusion and asp.net. I can't imagine they would be able to easily access each others memory space, let alone decrypt it (depending on where it is stored). Stick with either using cookies or sharing a database. You'll get it.

Thanks for suggestion but I have already done that but I always get html character included in the cookie

e.g my cookie in cold fusion page value is Kamran Shahid

I get Kamran%20Shahid in asp.net page

I have try all server.htmlencode,server.htmldecode,server.uRlencode e.t.c.

I don't want to do like str.replace stuff.

Also how could i transfer values in session collection from coldfusion to asp.net and then asp.net to coldfusion.I am sure it could be done But can't able to search it(as I know it is done in asp to asp.net and vice versaa)

Please help

A cookie is a cookie, and provided it's the same domain you should be able to read or set a cookie from any of the technologies that use cookies. It would be simple enough to test, set a cookie in a test ASPX page and see if you can read it in a Cold Fusion page.

You might be able to use cookies, but that would limit you to simple string values and other limitations of cookies. I'm not aware of any code examples demonstrating this.

OK.

Is there a working example way to pass session and cookies information from asp.net to coldfusion and then coldfusion to asp.net.(not sharing LIKE technique of passing information from asp to asp.net and then asp.net to asp).

I can't install any other thing there is a live application in between which I have to put an asp.net page which depends on the information(that is cookies,session,e.t.c. data) values pass from coldfusion page to asp.net page then asp.net page to coldfusion.

The only way to share session variables between ASP.NET and ColdFusion (CFML) is to use BlueDragon.NET from New Atlanta:

http://www.newatlanta.com/products/bluedragon/index.cfm

Look at Chapter 3 of this document, entitled "Sharing Variables between CFML and ASP.NET" for example code:

ftp://ftp.newatlanta.com/public/bluedragon/6_2_1/docs/BlueDragon_621_Integrating_CFML_with_ASPNET.pdf

A copy of that document is also included when you install BlueDragon.NET.

Is there a good example of passing/sharing session,cookies query string e.t.c data from coldfusion to asp.net and then asp.net to coldfusion.
Please provide a lik for working example(not articles)
