Re: Passing variables between servers

The session variables are need on both server for authorization needs. The two servers host two separate Intranet apps and I am trying to join the two together into one Intranet app. The variable will be used on both sides. The reason I don't what to use cookie is your users keep disabling them. They think a web site can use a cookie to break into their computer. They also disable JavaScript a lot too. _________________________________________ Mark McCulligh, Application Developer / Analyst Sykes Canada Corporation www.SykesCanada.com mmcculli@SykesCanada.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Seairth Jacobs" <seairth@seairth.com> Newsgroups: php.general To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, August 21, 2002 2:18 PM Subject: Re: Passing variables between servers > Is there any reason to pass the data to the ASP server other than the need > for the ASP server to pass it back in case the PHP server session has > expired?
