SETCLIENTCOOKIES does not turn cookies off. It merely specifies default
behavior for the session identifier for session variables.

Subject: Re: SETCLIENTCOOKIES="No"
Hello,
I understand the purpose that cookies serve and the difference between
server/client variables. I have read CFWACK ch27 -twice no less ;) . What I
am trying to figure out is this
(perhaps its a bug?):
I "supposedly" disabled cookies by specifying SETCLIENTCOOKIES="No". Then in
my code I actually do specify code to set a cookie. After I am finished on
this one template I check my
machine (client) and I find that there *has* been a cookie set.
I think that I must be misunderstanding exactly what SETCLIENTCOOKIES="No"
is supposed to do - because it IS setting cookies on the client machine if
the app's code specifies it
regardless of what SETCLIENTCOOKIES says.
Thanks for any help and best regards,
Nelson
