You probably expect that session management is often needed and thus a popular topic. Here are some available Perlmonks and CPAN resources: Categorized Questions and Answers How can I maintain a session cookie? How can I authenticate HTTP sessions? Tutorials Tips for Using Apache::Session CPAN Documentation CGI::Session::CookBook CGI::Session::Tutorial Also, you should try searching individual nodes for "session management" using Super Search. Good luck.	[reply]
