I am implementing a series of sequential web pages, a wizard, whereby the
user can step back to a previous page. I want to restore the state of those
pages if the user navigates back to them. Only being new to ASP.Net, I am
not sure if it provides facilities to manage this scenario. Any info would
be appreciated, thanks.

Try to use the session or applciation state object
Or even cookies

While the use of cookies is a nice option, but one caveat with cookies is
that it can be tampered with or deleted by the user. Another thing to
remember is that it has a storage limitation of 4KB only. If you are not
concerned with any of the above, you could also save cookies in memory by
setting cookieless= true in the session state settings in your web.config
file.
But as always you can never go wrong with Cache, Session state management as
Serge suggested.

Thanks Serge.
By using the session state, does that mean I need to put all of the state in
to the session manually?
Is there no way to reuse the viewstate mechanism that ASP.Net uses when you
operate on a single page, but somehow preserve across pages?

Yes, with session you have to handle them manually. In a sesion state you can
event store a complete object lke :
Session("USerIn fo") =MyUserInfoOBje ct
Remeber that session stand for single user, otherwise use application state
ViewState can be use to retrive Readonly controls properties

Hello list...
I'm developing an adventure game in Python (which of course is lots of
fun). One of the features is the ability to save games and restore the
saves later. I'm using the pickle module to implement this. Capturing
current program state and neatly replacing it later is proving to be
trickier than I first imagined, so I'm here to ask for a little
direction from wiser minds than mine!
When my program initializes, each game...

Hi
I have a site where I would like some pages to be accessed via SSL (login
and payment etc) and others via regular http. However I'm not sure whether
Session state can be maintained between the 2 protocols.
We have SSL set up on the site so that it can be accessed via the same
domain:

Hi
I have a declared a static DataSet object SOBJ in Global.asax.I also have a
localy defined DataSet LSOBJ in Global.asax which I am storing in Application
State.Is there any technical differences in the way both the objects are
handled by IIS.
Are both objects stored in different memory spaces?
I can access both the objects in my web page.
I will be grateful if some one can help me understand the difference.

I want to use history.go() to navigate between my previously loaded pages.
I'm looking for a way to trigger a function call when a page is accessed
using history.go(). Is there an event generated?
Is there a method for detecting what page the user came from when a page
is accessed using history.go()?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
