I use a modified version of the udf from cflib.org called deleteClientVariables. Pretty self explanitory. As for time-out check out the custom tag "clienttimeout.cfm" in the macromedia devex by Brian Kotek. Works like a charm.
Client variables are far more flexable and safer than the dirty ol'session scope. Theres a great tutorial on using client variables at http://www.halhelms.com that persuaded me. Good luck! -----Original Message----- From: Ken Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 4:53 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: cf and web farms You can easily do both with client variables. I'm running out right now but will follow-up with more info if nobody else chimes in with the details.

I can set it in the CF administrator, but the expiration times differ between my apps. >From: "Ken Wilson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: CF-Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: cf and web farms >Date: Wed, 5 Jun 2002 19:04:25 -0400 > > >I know I can use client variables in a database > >but that limits me. > > >In what way does that limit you? > >I would suggest it's just the opposite.
