Could you rephrase the question? I know what maintaining state is, but I
have no idea what maintaining state between a public and a secured site is.

for instance, we have a payment page that rests on our secure site (SSL 443)
but the rest of the site is on our public web server. what if some summary
info needs to be passed to the secured site how does that work? Or would you
not want to pass info that way?

thanks,
rodchar

Ah, you don't want to maintain state. You want to pass data from one web app
to another. So, the real issue is messaging. If the data is not sensitive,
you can pass it via QueryString or Form Post. If the data is sensitive, you
may want to encrypt it, if the 2 apps are on different servers. You could
use Windows Messaging Services to send the data securely. You could pass
data via SQL Server database. That's a few ideas.

My question is about how to maintain view state in mobile ASP.NET across postback / request in a web farm environment. First of all, let's assume the web-farm does NOT use stick-session feature. In other words, different web servers may serve different requests in the SAME session. In non-mobile ASP.NET, my understanding is that the view state information is passed between each client browser and server with every post-back. Even if...

I've been looking at two approaches for the maintenance of Session state for a Web Service application. One approach uses the old familiar Session object which I've used in the past for Web applications. As far as I can see, the Session approach is non-standard since Web Services are supposed to be agnostic with respect to their clients. It seems that cookies are outside the Web Service standard; therefore, such a Web Service application...

How to maintain the display state of a <divelement? Is there a simple way to maintain the display state of a <div> element? On my page, a div block can be hidden/shown by js function showhide(). I would like to maintain the block's display state when the page is posted back. I'm having difficulties to retrieve the div style attributes from the viewstate: Me.divProdCat.Style.Item("display") always returns the same attribute.
