This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
I am not sure if I am posting in the correct group or not but, Can anyone give me some lead on sessions? What I want to do is pass information from one HTML screen to another. This info changes depending on the person's ID. Thanks Suresh
Hi Suresh - There are *lots* of potentially appropriate forums -- it all depends on what techniques best help you achieve your goal. The most popular approach to this is probably using cookies -- small text files written and stored on the client that tell a server if a person has visited before and possibly what they've done so far, etc. The Servlets forum would be the best place to look fpr help. ------------------ Michael Ernest, co-author of: The Complete Java 2 Certification Study Guide

Suresh, You definitely want to be looking at servlets/jsp's where you can use HttpSessions (into which you can stuff serializable data). I'm going to move this to the servlet forum. Sean
