asp_discuss thread: Session Serialization..how?.


Message #1 by "samuel chou" <samuelonline@a...> on Tue, 27 Nov 2001 19:41:40
Hi, everyone.



I have a few questions regarding MS session object.



1)If I don't use session variable, like 'session("var")', 

but still leave session on so I can use other properties 

like "session.LCID", "session.sessionID",etc. will I sill 

face the problem of serialization (I am using frameset so 

this is quite important to know)?



2)session_onEnd sub. If I write some post processing here, 

will ASP free up the memory that was occupied by this 

particular session for me? The reason I ask this question 

is that I know session_onEnd fires right after session 

ends. However, for a reason I don't know, I can still 

access "session.sessionID" in this sub. How can this 

accomplished? because session.sessionID should have been 

erased before we got to session_onEnd .. there must be 

some mechnism here to prevent the deletion of session 

information if asp.dll sees a non-empty session_onEnd sub, 

which I am not sure of.



3)Netscape doesn't seem to have an option to "always allow 

session cookies" like IE does. How much percentage of your 

users turn cookies off? Have you ever faced complaints 

that your site didn't work because you used session 

objects?



Thanks
