Iframe Cookie and Https

PLEASE HELP

here is my issue

Login page is login.asp and which will set all the necessary values to cookie and which will redirect to a .net page say a.aspx which contains an IFRAME and that contains an asp page b.asp, All are from same website

when i am trying to access the cookie inside b.asp (which is an asp page inside an Iframe) am not getting the cookie values it. which is getting reset. But just before the loading of the page inside the IFRAMe am able to get the values.

1. If am trying to access the cookies directly from b.asp (not inside IFRAME) i can access the cookies. But if the same page is inside an IFRAME we are not able to access the cookies

2. Am able to access the cookies from a.aspx but after loading b.asp cookies get reset and then i cant get the cookie values in the aspx page

3. This happens only in IE and also when using the HTTPS , It works fine with all other browsers

Can you suggest any work around.

The fact that the pages are asp and aspx really makes no difference, they both are still coming accross as text/html which is how the clients treat them.

If im not mistaken, In IE, a parent page cannot interact with an embedded IFrame page if the embedded page uses HTTPS and the parent uses HTTP, even if the parent is on the same domain.

They both need to be either HTTP or HTTPS.
