Hello friends!

As some of you may have noticed, I am trying to write a full application based on YOUR KNOWLEDGE or help or both 8-)

For days now I have been strugling with NS not working with session variables and CFML templates which work flawlessly in IE. I started with NS 4.75, removed it and installed 6.2.1.

I have even added lines of code in application.cfm to check if session variables are defined and if not, to initialized them as blank ... as a poor attemp to have NS recognize them a valid variables ... I have walked away and come back only to keep on hitting the same brick wall.

Please help! I can use some pointers as to how to deal with NS and variable declarations and/or server configuration if that what the problem might be ...

Using W2K SERVER, IIS as Webserver. Pages where session variables are not required, NS works fine, but when the template depends on these (these pages can only be accessed by links set on nav bar as variables are found as defined) variables.

Thank you in advance!

Are cookies switched on in NETSCAPE? Could the location where the cookies are stored be full? Sessions are maintained by placing 2 cookies cfid and cftoken on the client machine if these are not present you will loose any sessions.

There are no issues with NS and sessions however there are issues with NS and CFLOCATION - I think version 4.7 and file uploads - if a blank file field is submmited the form fields after the file feild are not submmited i think thats on version 4.7 or 6 cant remember exactly.
