So then, here's where we stand:
session vars
good: easy to do, works fairly well
bad: needs cookies enabled
cookie munger
good: same as session vars
bad: filters ALL data sent out from server,
slows performace, not installed on the
server, and the host is a pain with that
sort of thing
querystrings
good: um...
bad: lots.
hidden forms
good: easy to work with on backend (coding)
bad: POSTPOSTPOSTPOSTPOSTPOST...
Interesting thoughts so far... the session vars one seems the way to go, but
then if the user opens a new window, IIS assigns a new session ID, doesn't
it? It's looking like I'll never find a solution that will work for everyone
out there.
