Session object in ASP script


Hi All!

I'm using IIS with python. I'm trying to use this combination for the
first time. I have a problem here.
I cannot use the Session object. I tried these:

Response.write( str(Session))
Response.write( "\n")
Response.write( str(Session.Con tents.Count))
Response.write( "\n")
Response.write( str(Session.Con tents.Item("foo ")))
Response.write( "\n")
Response.write( str(Session.Ses sionID))

....and I got these results:

<COMObject Session>
0
None
455980977
That is fine. But I cannot assign new items to the Session. For example:

Session.Content s.Item("foo") = 1 -> HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error
Session("foo") = 1 -> HTTP/1.1 500
Server Error
Session.foo = 1 -> AttributeError: foo

Most annoying: there is no traceback, no useful error message. Only this
500 (internal server error).
In VBScript I could simply do

Session("foo") = 1

In JScript I could do this either. How can I use the Session object with
ASP/Python? Can somebody help me?
Do I have to implement my own session handling? :-( I would not like to.
Thanks in advance.

How can I give a user-defined object session scope? From http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/server/iis/default.asp?url=/windows2000/en/server/iis/htm/asp/iiwaobu.htm I gather that it can be done, but there are no examples. Simply setting Set Session("tag") = new MyClass doesn't work.

Hello, I am trying to develop a book tracking application for my capstone in school, and am running into a problem. The application is an ASP.Net application written in C#.

Hi, This isn't a mission critical question but I thought I'dl throw it out there for your feedback as it's a bit curious. I have developed a shopping cart for an application I'm working on which is loosely based on the e-commerce example in the quickstarts tutorial. In the cart display I have provided functionality so that when a user clicks on a product name a popup is opened with the full product details displayed.

Hi, Apologies if this is a newbie question, I haven't found the answer in any faqs. I have an asp.net 2.0 page that sets session variables and then redirects to another page. For the page that gets redirected to, I've swapped in a simple page for testing that reads the session variables and displays their values.

I have an ASP page that is using an XMLHTTP object to request various pages from my server. I keep a single session throughout the XMLHTTP requests by bassing the ASPSESSIONID cookie through the XMLHTTP object. However, when the page requested through the XML object makes a <%Response.Redirect()%> call, a new session is created each time. Is this a flaw in the XMLHTTP Object? How can I force the session to remain the same after a...

Because of the limitations of Server.Execute and Server.Transfer the data generated by the controller needs to be persisted past the Server.Execute...
