New and Confused - CFID/CFTOKEN Visible

I'm new to CF and finding myself confused - is there any way to use session variables without having the CFID and CFTOKEN show in the nav bar? I can count on the user having cookies enabled in this particular project by the way, but rely heavily on session variables to store user id's for table inserts, to check on whether or not a user has already inserted a row in a table (so I can update instead if they use the back button) , etc, etc. But I somehow need to hide the visible id and token in the nav bar and I just can't seem to do that.

Any advice/experience you can share will be super valuable.

Thanks!! [sig][/sig]
 
Hmm.. good question. Have you been using the tag <CFLocation>? If you are, make sure that you the addtoken attribute set to no.

eg. <CFLOCATION URL=&quot;whatever.cfm&quot; ADDTOKEN=&quot;No&quot;>

I think CF inserts the 2 variables by default. If you are still getting the 2 variables in your URL, it must have something to do with the server.... inserting it by default in any case.

Hope this helps.

Yes, I have been using cflocation after the logic in my action pages. I will try addtoken &quot;NO&quot;. Thanks so much for replying to my post! [sig][/sig]
