code works on IE https but not http?

Hi,

I'm having a really weird problem with some code and hoping for a little help/ideas.

Just to explain what's going on briefly... I've added an include to the top of all files on our site (this code is pasted below) to check IP address, and then some pages will display slightly different content for our Canadian or US customers.

This works fine in Firefox. However, in IE, when a Canadian visitor comes it doesn't display canadian content on the http version of any page. Once they go to a https page, it works just fine. After that, if they go back to an http page it still displays properly.

The code is as follows:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
        customerCountry = Session("CustomerCountry")
        IF CustomerCountry = "" OR CustomerCountry = null THEN
            Dim connIPIP  ' ADO connIPection
            Dim rstIP
            Dim strDBPathIP  ' path to our Access database (*.mdb) file
            Dim queryIP
           
            strDBPathIP = Server.MapPath("/Database/ipcountry.mdb")
            Set connIP = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.connection")
            connIP.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & strDBPathIP & ";"
           
            ip=request.servervariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
            myIP=split(ip,".")
            IPnumber=(myIp(0)*16777216)+(myIP(1)*65536)+(myIP(2)*256)+(myIP(3))
           
            queryIP="Select * from Countries Where IP_FROM<=" & IPnumber & " AND IP_TO>=" & IPnumber & ";"
            Set rstIP = connIP.Execute(queryIP)
            IF NOT rstIP.EOF THEN
                IF rstIP("COUNTRY_CODE2") = "CA" THEN
                    customerCountry = "CA"
                ELSE
                    customerCountry = "US"
                END IF
                Session("CustomerCountry") = customerCountry
            END IF
            rstIP.close
            set rstIP = nothing
            connIP.close
            set connIP = nothing
        END IF
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Any ideas as to why this might happen?

Thanks in advance,

Scott

If the code works in forefox then it is not a coding problem,   it is a browser problem indicating the problem is not with code running on the server (ASP).

Since you are using the session object make sure both browsers have cookies enabled.
