Session Object Question...

I'm wondering where the data is stored for Session objects. Is it passed to
the browser, and then passed back to the server during page requests? Or,
is the Session data always on the server, and the browser simply passes the
server it's unique session id?

Thanks...

Only the session.id is stored on the client as a simple ram-cookie.

The client browser knows nothing about [the idea of] sessions.

Technically, it is stored within the ASP -server application process memory-
using the GIT (global interface table).

in asp.net there are a lot more possibilities to store data .
