Re: HTTP/1.1 Protocol: Help Needed

2005-05-09 05:19:34
"Authentication through forms" is not the way that HTTP authentication
works. If you would be doing HTTP authentication*
You do need cookies then or you can use a special 'session id' option in
the tag.

I understand that and know how the HTTP Authentication works.

All I was interested in was... whether there's some way, other than
cookie or "session-ID" option (ugly parameter to URL) through which I
can track the session.

It seems there's no other way out.

Actually, I am looking at present day scenarios where some large
corporations, I know of, have strict policies on Cookies (at least
they've issued guidelines and some even have their proxy servers not
letting in / out any cookies; at least in India).

It seems there's no otherway out...
