We always tell people not to use cookies to maintain state.
However, what do people do, and how well does it work/what problems are there?
I'll put it all in the HOWTO.
Thanks Joe
I've been involved with a mid sized ecommerce company for about 4 years
and we've had very few problems using cookies for state (storred in a
single backend db.) Its fast and easy...
If the odd customer doesn't have cookies turned on then they are no
great loss.
Putting the sessionid in the URL i.e. GET is ugly and slightly less secure.
I guess you could POST it on every page but would that be slower than
cookies ? (I think so)
