Cookies situation

    Hi!

    I have a ecommerce site that works with cookies.
    Is any other way to built a ecommerce site (with shopping chart) without cookies?
    If not, how can I make the browser to recognise if the cookies are active, in order to let the user know (with a popup) that It must set cookies availables in his browser?

    Thanks
    António

    You can use sessions. If you don't want that, try to set a cookie, redirect, check if it exists, and if not throw a message.

    Ok. Thanks for your reply.
    My question is: can I have sessions without request the user to log in?

    "try to set a cookie, redirect, check if it exists, and if not throw a message."
    Do you have any example or a web page where I can learn how to do it?

    Yes, simply start the session once the user enters the designated page. You might have a problem deciding when to clear a user's session..
