[Javascript] Bit late! JavaScript to PHP variable transfer

[Chris Tifer]

I used to believe the same thing, but that's not the case. Disable 
cookies in your browser. Session Variables are indeed cookies 
stored on the client.  Or am I mistaken in that the variable is set on 
the server, but the cookie on the client is just needed to associate 
the variables to the user?

Application Variables are stored on the server for sure...
