That would be nice, sure, but you don't need sessions for it. A simple cookie could handle it fine, and you wouldn't have to maintain state on the server. E.g., there's no reason not to provide that convenience to not-logged-in users or to anonymous logged-in users, too, except that if you used sessions for it you could potentially end up with a lot of temporary junk stored in your repo db to handle it. -- Joshua Paine LetterBlock: Web Applications Built With Joy http://letterblock.com/ 301-576-1920 _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
