Chalon, | <CM> Well, I agree about going "stateless," but as the dialog that started | this point explained, I think we have differences over just what that means. Yes, that is usually the problem. "Stateless" in this context usually means not storing conversational state on the server. It does not imply that you can build server applications that need no storage! Nor does it imply anything about what clients can store. > If I had to transfer all the balances and positions for my customers each > time so that I could value a portfolio, I would never be able to handle the > hundreds of thousands of concurrent users we do every day. That's not conversational state you're talking about. Regards, Walden Mathews
