Ok the problem is clear, netscape might behave different by the sounds of
it. But when you set a cookie its sent to that page and that page only, if
the browser can set a cookie it will. However if the page is changed and the
cookie is not reset in the code for that page it will not become available
to this new page.
Session variables rely on session mangement, which in turn sets a cookie. If
the cookie is NOT sdwitched on and the CFID and CFTOKEN are not passed in
the page or url then CF assigns a new CFID & CFToken.
Application variables are persistant across connections and across sessions,
this means that you can create an application variable to see if the
application variables have been set. Otherwise don't get me wrong, but if
you do session.application.var then it ineffect says that this application
variable will only be available to this session.

I've found that it has problems with temporary cookies - it doesn't always
carry them forwards

I'm deliberately holding them on the server as many users will be on the
system simultaneously, so I don't want it re-loading the variables all the
time.

They're definitely on - but (as I've said above) temporary ones seem to
dissapear between pages - which seems to defeat the point of them
After some playing, I got into the first page, but when going to another
page, the temporary cookie had vanished, thus all references within my
system vanished...
