Coldfusion - create "permanently bypass" option on splash page

[jeffmc21]

I have a splash page for our site (not my choice, but my client wants it), and I need to add an option to "permanently bypass" beside the enter store option.

Anyone have any idea or advice on how to create that so that it works properly?

add this to the top of your page.

<cflocation url="whereYouWantToGo.html"/>

The only thing I can think of is to use cookies. If a person has cookies disabled in their browser, then they will see the splash page every time.

In Application.cfm, use a conditional to check if the cookie exists; if not, create it and default it to 1; if it does exist, get the value.

If value = 0, skip the splash page; if value = 1, show the splash page.

Create a checkbox to "skip this in the future" and use the onClick to change the value of the cookie.

I see that this thread is weeks old; hope you still check here from time to time.
