The Session object is a Chili!Soft ASP built-in object that stores information needed for a particular user session. Variables stored in the Session object are not discarded when the user jumps between pages in the application; instead, they persist for the entire user session. The Chili!Soft ASP Server automatically creates a Session object when a user who does not already have a session requests an ASP page. The server destroys the Session object when the session expires or is abandoned. The Session object enables the ASP developer to:
· Automatically identify and classify requests coming from a single browser client into a logical application "session" on the server
· Store session-scoped data on the server for use across multiple browser requests
· Use session lifetime management events (OnSessionStart, OnSessionEnd)
· Automatically release session data/information if the browser does not re-visit an application after a specified timeout period.
