An Application variable when set can be read by all sessions running in that
application scope. Lets say you have a Application Variable that stores the
current temperature.
Application("Temperature") = "12.5"
ALL sessions coming to your site will see the SAME value for that
application variable as 12.5
A session variable is different in that it can only read the value set for
the single session. So if you set a session variable to some value, ONLY
that session can read it, no other sessions can see the value you set for
this session.
Example:
Let's say you generate a unique number for every visitor that comes to your
site. You could then put that number in a session variable like this:
Visitor A comes to the site
Session("MySessionVariable") = 1234
Visitor B comes to the site
Session("MySessionVariable") = 6789
Visitor A and B have both access to the SAME Session variable
"MySessionVariable" but the contents of the variable is different for each.
Hope that helps.
