Hmmm... browser cookies it is then. I was hoping one of the environment
variables would work. Is there any limit to the amout of data in a cookie?

Cheers

  Browser cookies? If you don't mind your session data living client side,
you just need to modify the "Cookie:" HTTP header. Details are beyond the
scope of this email, but the format is pretty simple =).

  If you want server-side session data, you may want to consider a
long-running Metacard process or gluing the data with PHP or another
language which can keep session variables.

    Can we get & set HTTP session data in CGI? If so how?
