Viewstate comes to my mind but that will have issues when the user
uses the backbutton... Ofcourse the viewstate can be backed into a db
but then again...

Why don't you want to use the session?

Another option could be the HttpCache, but that would/should bind the
customer to a particular webserver.

Hi,
We are developing an e-commerce site and were by we have an instance of the 
infamous shopping cart example.

It is not the classic wizard style shopping cart where you select items in one 
hit and then proceed to the checkout.
More the cart is maintained somehow and the user can click from page to page 
selecting items and then proceed to checkout.
I am using .NET 2.0 (ASP.NET & C#) and my question is, how do I maintain this 
order in memory.  I really do not want to use the session to store the cart, are 
there any new techniques I can use in .NET 2.0 or what are people's advice on this 
much travelled topic.

Thanks
Paul
