session and sql ques 2

[Guest]

hey all,

if your using sql server as session state does this enable you to use it as
shopping cart concept. for instance could you have a user fill out some info
save it then on another computer continue with that same session?

thanks,

No, session is available only available when the session is active.
Once the session times out it is removed.

Anyway, opening a browser on another computer would start a new session.

What you would need to do is either store the shopping cart information
in a cookie or in a database and retrieve it when the user logs in.
