.Net and Classic ASP

[scott]

Is there any way to maintain variables between aspx and asp files other than
query strings? Is there a cookie trick that could maybe hold a user's access
level variable?

 

[Kyle Peterson]

there are some tricks..

I cant find the article right now but one guy would set session variables in
..NET then redirect to an asp and set the same variables.

or vice versa

and he somehow had some security in there to keep people from setting
variables whenthey were not supposed to


I think I saw a forum post about it on www.powerasp.com a while back

sounds aweful but sometimes ya got to do what ya gotta do when your slowly
migrating to the new stuff

he said it worked great and he had a pretty busy site from what I rememeber


there is also some product out there you install on the server...

 

[scott]

Can you give me any ideas of search terms that may help me find that product
you mentioned or any articles that may exist?

i'd really like to break into .net, but have much invested in current asp.

Sounds a littl like

But perhaps the articles about "Multiple Session Cookie(MSC)"
by Edmond Wychowsky's may be more relevant:
