I have an asp.net website (IIS 6 on windows Server 2003, .NET
Framework 2.0)


On one of my page I am making a call to a ASP.net web service (to
obtain some data), I DO NOT want to make any secure calls to the web
service. Does SSL have any issue with consuming a web service inside
your
asp.net web page?

Is that true that session variables will be lost when url changes from
HTTPS to HTTP? I only want to secure few (only four) pages on the
website.
 
Hello c_shah,

Don't quite understand your issue.
Where is SSL? Your ASp.net site, or remote web service is SSLed?

my question

are session variable will be lost (asp.net website) between https and
http?
 
Hello c_shah,

AFAIK there is no limitation for the session variables (because they are
serialized) and only for cookies.

Michael, I am sorry

Do you meant to say session variable will be lost between HTTPS and
HTTP unless you use database to store session?
 
Hello c_shah,

Seems so, I've never tried it, but see the number of other posts about this,
that u need to store in in DB

I recommend to google and examine this
