Session
What is a Session
- Session in computer science (also known as communication session), is defined as a semi-permanent interactive information exchange between communicating devices that is established at a certain time and torn down at a later time.(www.wikipedia.com)
- The logical view of a session begins with the first connection to an application by a client and ends after that client's last connection. However, because of the stateless nature of the web, it is not always possible to define a precise point at which a session ends. A session should end when the user finishes using an application. In most cases, however, a web application has no way of knowing if a user has finished or is just lingering over a page. Therefore, sessions always terminate after a time-out period of inactivity. If the user does not access a page of the application within this time-out period, ColdFusion interprets this as the end of the session and clears any variables associated with that session.
