Yea, tell her to stop using aol... Even if you're using aol for dialup, you
can still use an external browser.  Teach her how to start up an external
internet explorer, or better yet firefox.

Subject: AOL and session variables?

A client of mine who uses AOL is having problems logging into the CMS which
I built for her. I believe I've narrowed it down to a session variable
thing. The website either doesn't see the var or it thinks that the var is
false when it should be true.

Here's the line from my app.cfm file:

<cfapplication name="no" sessionmanagement="Yes" setclientcookies="Yes"
sessiontimeout="#createtimespan(1,0,0,0)#" clientmanagement="yes"
clientstorage="cookie">

Here's how I log her in:
<cfset session.loggedin = 1>

Then on every page of the site (in the header include) I have this code:
<cfif NOT IsDefined("SESSION.loggedin") OR SESSION.loggedin IS 0>
        <cflocation url="index.cfm?unlog" addToken="no">
</cfif>

It let's her IN to the site, but when she tries to access any of the pages
in the admin section it dumps her back to the login screen. I found this
page on AOL's site about enabling cookies, but it didn't help.
http://webmaster.info.aol.com/cookieguide.html

Does anyone have any ideas about this?
