Correct, that's what I'm trying to do -- disable session management entirely for bots so that thousands of sessions dont get needlessly created and destroyed every 15 minutes.
Just to put this in perspective as to why I'm experimenting with this, Google has over 500,000 pages from my site indexed. Add in Google Adwords on a large number of those pages, and Google is literally hammering the site 24 hrs a day. This is great for driving traffic, but the overhead of maintaining state for each one of these bot requests seems wasteful to me. The problem is that as soon as you disable session management, all pages that reference session variables (even inside of scope existence checks) throw errors. So it doesn't look like there's a way to me of disabling session management for certain cgi.http_user_agents, yet having it enabled for non-bots. >ugh, you have sessionmanagement="no" > >DK > >On 12/7/05, Terry Ford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
