iPlanet does, and I'm sure other vendors do
also.
I'm a little lost here about the DHTML & JS stuff,
but you might have a misunderstanding about cookies.
but you might have a misunderstanding about cookies.
You can turn cookies
off in the browser, but the Appserver should
implement them via the
jsessionid. Cookies are fine
for a cluster environment.
The servlets must be marked as sticky, meaning
each subsequent request will
return to the correct
JVM. Of course, this might depend
on the Appserver being
used, and how your
cluster is configured.
At my present job, we have 3 machines running 10 JVM’s, a total of 30 JVM’s
in the cluster.
If your not using session beans, are you using HttpSession?
