HELP - SESSION VARIABLES

[Mark Roberts]

hi,
After someone logs in to my site's main page I capture the user i.d. to a
session variable like this:

"Dim requestorID
session("reques torID") = Request("HidUse rID")"

When I perform "Welcome <%=session("req uestorID")%>"
it displays "Welcome userid" as it should. Whenever I go to another page in
the application and then return to the main page it displays "Welcome" only.

Why does the session variable disappear?
I have "<%Response.Buf fer = True%>".

Re: HELP - SESSION VARIABLES

I'm sure others would point out that you should be asking a VBScript group,
or ASP groups.

It's got nothing to do with Response.Buffer - that just buffers up all your
script output before sending the page to the client.

My web site uses Session("whatev er") a few times and works fine... check
your IIS settings or consult your page host.
