This is a calling for someone who can code a session library without use of cookie.

Cookie is a main problem, cause many people don't know what is it. So, the solution would be to create a new session library, working with database and an ajax solution, implementing this (for example):
JSTONE Javascript

Could be a good cookie alternative ?

It still seems experimental, and with the upcoming changes to HTML 5 with a local storage API, what's the point? And if someone has a problem understanding something as simple as cookies, how would they understand something slightly more complicated (if less robust) like JSTONE?

You don't imagine how many people don't know how to activate cookie in its browser.

I made i little vote game. With more than 400 hit a day, only 30 subscriber in the month !
All the subscriber where under Firefox / OSX or XP/Vista !
Other are with Internet Explorer... and activate cookie with it, it's a torture !

So i had javascript to show if cookie is not activated, and how to do it !

The world would be better with no cookie Smile

The solution in the precedent post, is transparent for user ! Javascript must be activated also... this is an other story :p

The multi-billion dollar online advertising industry has no major fuss with cookies. Neither do I.

What interest to Advertise industry to use session ???

Your response is very strange...

Why don't say : my idea is a bad idea, it's so simple.
