Richard, Is this happening in IE6? In this version, the default setting is to block all session cookies, unless the website has a programatic privicy policy or the user specifically adds the web domain to the privicy list. In other words the session cookie is never set!
Keep in mind session cookies (CFID and CFTOKEN) are stored as a cookie on the client's machine. The client uses this information to pull the session variable. So, this is not a Cold Fusion problem, but rather the way IE handles cookies. The workaround (other than using client variables) is to attached CFTOKEN and CFID into every URL and form-- this will bypass this issue and provide Cold Fusion with a method to look up session variables.
