I'm not sure you understand exactly what I'm saying. The data on the page is no different, it's just a matter of whether the spider will get a URL with the session identifiers on it or not. If you are doing a cookie detection, normally it will add the identifiers for spiders, since they don't use cookies. All I'm doing is detecting the spider and treating it as if it *does* have cookies turned on, and leaving them off. So it can check for consistency all it wants, nothing is going to change on the page. --- Mary Jo ~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:255100 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

I would focus on possible issues with other installed software. If the site truly doesn't require cookies then cookies obviously aren't the problem. ;^) There's a lot of crap out there now: "Hotbar", "Bonzai Buddy" and others play havoc with browsers and settings. A lot of this software sets itself up as a proxy server of a type - it may be mangling the URL beyond CF's help. You may also want to check her connection architecture. Again proxy servers (this time legitimate proxy servers) can also (although rarely do) modify the URL.

You didn't mention if you checked her cookie settings. That could be a major cause of this kind of problem. Also, less likely, we've seen some odd behavior on our site if the IE add-in "HotBar" was installed. We've got reports that "only on our site" users would crash when trying to view certain pages.

New DELL WinXP MSN User Loosing Session
Situation: Existing system, hundreds of successful users. All templates add url tokens so that login works with or without cookies. This is tested and confirmed by dozens of users every day. Problem: ONE user with a new Dell WinXP, IE 6.0.26 connecting through MSN is not retaining session. She gets "bumped off" after login. This is a high end service web site so I am able to speak with the user on the phone. (btw. user doesn't really like computers ... ) What I have done so far: 1. ensure that system works with browser at max security 2. make sure her date/time was set correctly 3. have her run windowsupdate to apply all critical updates. Still, she gets through the login screen to her first screen but when she tries to go on to the second page of the site, her session has gone away. Did I mention that hundreds of other people use this system successfully every day? Btw we manage logins with databased client variables.

If AIM is installed, doesn't it provide support for a proprietary protocol (aim://) in the browser? Also, I know that some software (like Jabber) can talk to a number of these services at a pretty low level. Some of it is even open source - perhaps you could pull some code off of SourceForge and write your own back-end --- Billy Cravens Web Development, EDS [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: BT [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2001 10:09 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: MSN how can you send it to AIM? -Original Message- From: Dan Phillips [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2001 11:05 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: MSN >From what I have found, MSN is not too friendly when it comes to sending messages unless you use their client software.

RE: MSN
I believe that the MSN Messenger uses a UDP protocol to communicate. If so you might be able to use the IntraFoundation UDPClient FREEWARE COM Object. http://www.intrafoundation.com/udpclient.html Best regards, Dennis Powers UXB Internet (203)879-2844 http://www.uxbinfo.com/ -Original Message- From: webmaster [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2001 10:50 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: MSN Does anyone know how to send a MSN message from a CF app ?
