I'm assuming you were expecting your shopping cart to be gone after an hour?
Any session variables are destroyed after an hour, but your CFID is set in a
cookie. If your shopping cart was in session variables it would be gone,
but I'm assuming you wrote it to a database with an ID of 71, and so it
persisted overnight.
If you want to "kill" the shopping cart when the session variables timeout,
do something like the following:
<cfif not isdefined("session.active")>
<!--- check for and delete any database records you don't
want --->
<cfset session.active = "True">
</cfif>
Session.active will disappear after an hour of them not using the site. The
one thing this won't do is clean up shopping carts that have been abandoned
by people who don't return.

Subject: session management
Hey all,
I am having a serious session management problem. Here is my cfapplication
tag ...
<CFAPPLICATION NAME="xite"
SESSIONMANAGEMENT="Yes"
SESSIONTIMEOUT="#CreateTimeSpan(0,1,0,0)#"
APPLICATIONTIMEOUT="#CreateTimeSpan(0,1,0,0)#">
When I was working with the application last night I had a cfid of 71. This
morning when I come back in (machine was shutdown last night) and logged
back into the application I had a cfid of 71 and the stuff that I put into
the shopping cart last night showed up.
What am I doing wrong????!!!
