in thread embedded BEGIN and END?

How about IP-based session tracking? I've never tried it with Perl, but in ColdFusion you can store session variables in a database using the IP address as the primary key. It causes some minor problems with proxy servers, but it shouldn't cause a problem except in extreme circumstances. And if your beliefs don't permit cookies, well, you're limited in options, I would think.

    Well, I don't think avoiding all forms of user tracking is really a problem. If it limits the workarounds, forcing me to keep at it until I find a sollution to the underlying problem, then I think that is more of a blessing than a limitation.

      Whoops! I didn't intend any criticism, really. Sorry if I came across that way. I just hoped to help you out with a possible solution, nothing more. Believe me, any site that refuses to put cookies on my hard drive is OK in my book.

        I did not think you were critisizing, I did not intend my response to seem that way. I was only, giving my reasoning as to why that sollution wouldn't work for my application.
