Session for Form Auth?

Can sessions used be for Form Authentication instead of cookies? I am
thinking of using Forms Authentication for locked-down browsers that
do not allow cookies.

Thanks.
 
ASP.NET support cookies-less session, it automatic append session ID as a query parameter in every query string.

Hi,



Thanks for posting in the community!
From your description, you'd like to know whether it is possible to
implement cookieless FormsAuthentication in ASP.NET, yes?
If there is anything I misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.

I've viewed the messages in the thread and found that Amit has provided a
very cool tech article on this:

I believe that'll be helpful to you. Please check out the web link.
