Hi, i think i many cases cookies are better, because the are stored in the computers memory for a very long time if needed and is not destroyed after the session timeout or changeing the IP. For example Amazon stores the cart in session, but the login-data is stored in a cookie so you don't need to relogin every time you change you IP. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Hendry Sumilo [mailto:hsumilo@hotmail.com] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 25.
