Hi Karen, Ok, I have verified that the session cookie is being set using the WebDeveloper toolbar in Firefox, and I set up an "error" page to redirect to if the cookie wasn't set. All that worked as intended.
So, my next stupid question is...how do I get the value of the cookie back out to the template, if it's not the way outlined in the documentation...?
