Hi, I need to clear some basic doubts on sessions in perl. First I will explain my scenario where i've to use sessions. Iam using ETHZSession.pm and Iam confusing with the available methods. I've different directories in my main project folder. These are module wise directories. First, I want to know, is it possible to maintain sessions between two folders?? In the documentation of ETHZSession.pm, they are clearly telling that, we need to keep all scripts in one directory. I don't want to use cookies. Second, if browser closes, How can we kill the session??? Third, is there any other Session.pm which is more effeciant than ETHZ?? Fourth, Is it must to maintain main.cgi????because, in documentation they mentioned this is clearly mentioned. If not, how can we manage if there is any error in session???? Fifth, Is it necessary to pass session id in every link or url???? And finally, if you have any source codes which deals with sessions, kindly post it to ayyalaraj@yahoo.com. Thanks in advance A C Sekhar
