If you pass a URLtoken in ALL of your urls <a> <form> and <cflocation>
tags you don't need to use cookies and you can still utilize client
variables.
What cookies allow you to do is have a "remember me" checkbox for your
users when they log in. that way they won't need to login again the next
time they come back to your site.
I've found that I get slightly faster performance (very minimal
difference) by copying client.urltoken over to request.urltoken, AND it
allows me to add additional variables to the URLtoken if necessary.
This is how I do it:
<cfapplication clientmanagement="yes" name="whatever">
<cfset request.urltoken=client.urltoken>
<a href="index.cfm?#request.urltoken#">
<form action="index.cfm?#request.urltoken#">
</form>
<cflocation url="index.cfm?#request.urltoken#" addtoken="no">
Does that help?
