Why is Firefox 8 returning (undefined) for a Response.write Request.cookies query in JavaScript?

I am an IT student. In my classic asp course I was tasked with creating, and then displaying the contents of a cookie in javascript. I use the server-side code Response.Cookies("registration")("UserName") = Request.Form("txtUserName"); to set the cookie name, key, and value. Then Response.write (Request.cookies("registration")("UserName")); to display it. This works fine in other browsers, even the previous versions of Firefox installed on the computers at school, but returns "undefined" on my home machine (Windows 7 - 64bit). I just updated to ver 9.0.1, allow all cookies, allow javascript. This is the first time in two years of school that I have found IE would do something I wanted and Firefox wouldn't. Any suggestions? Thanks. Matt
