Q: Is global.asa optional? A: Global.asa is NOT necessary and its elimination will NOT result in a cookie being sent for every page. Once a session variable is set no further cookies will be sent for that session. The optimal situation in which to do away with global.asa is when there is a default start point for every user, e.g., a login page or a homepage. You can place connection string and other session information there
and place a snippet of code at the top of every other page that redirects to the default page if a key session variable is empty. - Russ Whitehurst | Articles | | | Jul 31, 1997 - Creating a Category Site with ASP | | In this issue 15 Seconds implements a catalog site that is build with Active Server pages and SQL Server.
