Sessions and cookies are interrelated. When you write to the session, a cookie is also created. On the next request, the cookie is read. This is how one maintains state between requests. I don't think you should be considering ACL for something like that, anyway. Not unless your buyers must be logged in first, and certain buyers cannot buy certain products, or something like that. Otherwise, a shopping cart shouldn't require that users are logged in. > The data would need to hold an array of model Photo. Why not just save the id? When it comes time to check out, read the ids from the cart and fetch the releavant photos. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
