Re: ASP assistance please...

NO that much is FACT, ASP stores sessions in cookies, and unlike PHP you
don't have the option to change it.

| Uh .. I thought session variables and objects are stored in server memory
| (for the life of the session), whereas cookies are stored on the client's
| machine/browser (for whatever life is specified in the response stmt.).
And
| cookies are not used to transfer parameters from page to page.  Am I
missing
| something?  Nik's response seems right on.
