sessionlessASP Property

See Also      Applies To

Specifies whether Microsoft Internet Information Server allows Session object support for maintaining user information over the course of a visit.

Settings

Choose True or False.

Remarks

This property setting is useful only in ASP pages. A sessionless ASP page cannot create or use Session objects in the page, but can run slightly faster.

The default session state for ASP pages is True. Therefore, when you set the sessionlessASP property to True, the following tag is added to the top of the page:

<%@ EnableSessionState=FALSE %>

Setting this property to False removes this setting.

You can use the Session object to store information needed for a particular user session. Variables stored in the Session object are not discarded when the user jumps between pages in the application. Instead, these variables persist for the entire time the user is accessing pages in your application.

You can also use Session methods to explicitly end a session and set the time-out period for an idle session.
