The way i use the two most of the time is to put the variables that are used by php and javascript in a cookie and more sensitive data in a session and sometimes i use a mysql table. cookies are useful to make a bridge between sessions. Sessions are easy to use in php but they also have a limited filesize so you can't put too much data in a session. If you use a database you can store anything you want. So i don't think you should switch. try to find a way that works for you. David _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
