Unless you're working with a set of clients that are completely in your control, I'd venture to say no... relying on cookies is not the best choice. If your service is open to the public Internet, and you want to have as much compatability as possible, then I would make sure that you use URL rewriting everywhere that you have a link, redirect or a form post. That way, if their cookies are off, you will still maintain the session with the user. -Raiden --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
