>if cookies are turned off on my internet explorer, then would the application still work when I debug from my local machine. the app works when i use my machine as the server. this is a stupid question, but where exactly do you set cookies on and off? I assume it is under tools / options somewhere. thanks.


that's simple. Open up your browser and go to help. Search on cookies to learn all about them and their control. Also.... check out cookies and seesion variables in vs.net help. That is where I put the 2 things together. Please keep me posted as to your progress.
