So how do YOU guys handle session data?
You create form-bean like classes, and use them in actions? or you
store the fields individually as attributes?
My code is getting unmanageable right now...because of so many form
fields...all represented as separate variables...and maintained in
hidden variables, or cookies...
I will soon need a cleaner, object oriented way...
