Session

ASP Reference

Session

The Session is perhaps the easiest and quickest way of passing variables accross your ASP applications for the duration of the client's connection to the server. Utilising temporary cookies on the client machine to do so, a useful application of the Session object would be to declare Session objects in the global.asa. which could be used throughout the users' session.

The Session objet has its pro and conns as detailed at http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/092098-2.shtml. The object has 4 properties, 2 collections, 1 method and 2 events:

Properties:
Codepage

Collections:

Methods:
