A cookie based approach might not be feasible for a lot of data and Ajax/Javascript tricks to persist a sesssion by reloading something (e.g. a .gif) require Javascript, of course. However JSF or Tapestry 4.0 support persistance of client-side session state by configuration means. See: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=33991 http://howardlewisship.com/blog/2005/04/property-persistence-on-client.html For Tapestry just use: <property name="myProperty" persist="client"/> In case you neither want to use JSF or T4 you might still create your own session state serialization/deserialization code/jsp tags to do it. However be aware that you must not trust client data and that you might pass huge hidden fields along with each request. Crypting data is recommended. Using client-side state you won't even need a log out anylonger, except in order to "reset/clean" state.
