Paul,

I though Session was by user? We use a session variable to save the current user id. How can we do this if a Session is not by user?

TIA

Rex

(I apologize in advance if this is already stuff you know, I just want to make sure I cover everything possible). For example, let's suppose user 1 logs into a website. You set a application-level variable that saves the user's name. User 2 then logs on, and we save this same variable. User 1 then goes to another page - the website now thinks it's User 2, since that was the last user on the site. Basically, everything needs to be stateless and needs to be set-up on every hit. If you're already doing this, I'd say some variable isn't getting set under certain circumstances.
