Our app, for instance, runs over SSL, and the cookie expires when the browser is closed. We also tie it to whatever IP the user appears to be coming from for extra robustness. In theory some broken ISPs (like AOL) will have problems with this beecause the same cookie will now appear to come from multiple IPs, but in practice that doesn't seem to happen (any more ?). -- Tom Chiverton Helping to elementarily establish strategic portals on: http://thefalken.livejournal.com **************************************************** This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP.
