Set asp.net Session variables via javascript 1

[JonathanHerschel]

Ok, I know that you may be thinking that since Session variables are server side and js is client script, you couldn't set the Session variables for the present page, but I don't need them until the next page.

I've searched and only found that this 'can't be done'.
There has to be a workaround. I have a <div> tag that is hidden/shown via javascript, but I would like to keep this setting through the whole session.

In my ASP.Net project I set Session["div"] = hide, but I would like that when the tag is hidden/shown(via js onclick), I can update the Session variable. Does anyone have any workarounds up their sleeve?

thanks,
Jonathan

Hi

That would be a nice vulnerability. Fortunately indeed 'can't be done'.

The best you can do is to send the value with AJAX to an ASP anything.

Or even more simple, store it in a cookie.
