Cookies Liability Issue

[Robert Hanson]

After you determine that a user's browser is set not to use cookies when
storing per user information in session, since you can't change to
cookieless for that particular session (only in machine.config and
web.config), what is the suggested alternative?

Thanks in advance,

Users should configure their browser to allow session cookies - even if they
chose to disallow other types of cookies.

But you either have the option of using cookieless session state, or with
cookies. You can't change that midstream.

Hello Bob,

You could refer to
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q175167 for some
other place to store state data.

Hope it helps.
