Client variables can be stored in three places, 1.a cookie 2.the registry 3.a dsn
if you are not using cookies they obviously your gonna have to use one of the other two options, the registry is good for performance but must be allocated a lot of space, the dsn is a better option, alternatively using the url string is another way to maintain session state, and tricky, also another user can pretend to be you, the alternative to that would be to pass them in hidden form fields. user A is obviously different to user b when you are feeding out information independant to both users, if CF can't find the cftoken and cfid it will create one, every time.

How can it do this without using a cookie and how does it differentiate User A from User B?

This means on the page the user calls first. On the next pages it exists if you passed it on the url. -----Original Message----- From: Bosky, Dave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: vrijdag 22 maart 2002 15:00 To: CF-Talk Subject: Client Variables If I have clientmanagement =yes and setclientcookies=no in my application.cfm file, how does cf identify specific users in the index.cfm file? I understand you must append the client.urltoken to all pages if setclientcookies=no but how does index.cfm find the client.urltoken? Probably a silly question with a simple answer...
