For beginners however I suggest any of the first two methods to implement session
tracking. Rather the facing the learning curve associated with cookies you could
manage with one of the above 2 techniques that you could implement using any
language. My first preference is always for hidden fields. But in cases where
I am not dealing with forms as such (which generally doesn't happen) I also
use URL Rewriting.
Hope this article gave you a sound introduction to session tracking. I am sure
you can use the knowledge presented here for you personal programming needs.
However in case you plan to implement a professional website then I would suggest
you to look into APIs specifically designed for session tracking which would
do all the above mentioned stuff for you automatically without you worrying
about the nitty-gritty details.
