Hi Diane, > I just bought Visual Studio.net
It's a *fantastic* IDE. I'm still getting to grips with it but I'm starting to think it could well be the third thing I like that MS have done :-) > ASP.net (supposedly) maintains session state > much better, but it uses cookies to do so. Sure, it needs to make sure the session ID is there for the next page. > What about browsers that don't support cookies? The site at where I work (http://www.witanjardine.co.uk/, and I didn't have anything to do with it) is written in standard ASP, and if you visit it without cookies, you just get a session ID automatically stuck on the end of each URL. I imagine this is done automatically when IIS serves up the page (PHP works in exactly this way). Visitors with cookies will see: http://example.com/url And visitors without will see: http://example.com/url?sessionID=oneOfThoseMicrosoftGUIDs I'm not absolutely certain this is how ASP.NET does it, but I'll be amazed if it's substantially different.
