Whenever my users access an ASP script, the Web server tries to set a cookie in their browser. Are cookies required for ASP?
- Are Cookies needed with ASP?
Active Server Pages doesn't require cookies unless your code uses the framework's built-in session management functionality. ASP uses cookies to maintain state between page requests and determine which set of session information is for which user. If you'd really like to avoid cookies you can either turn off the session functionality or install Microsoft's beta "Cookie Munger" filter (IIS only). For more information about the "Cookie Munger" filter take a look at:
