I've always used session variables, too, until now. I'm playing with Toby's OpenForums for Fusebox. It's set up to use client vars. Rather than mucking around and changing everything to the session scope, I thought I would first give it a whirl as is. My host tells me that setting my original data source up to handle client vars won't be a problem.
Cheers and thanks.
