Ermmm...
Isn't $_SESSION a superglobal available only during script execution?
Yes it sets a session_id in a cookie to which is sent to the server to
identifie the client, but to my knowledge $_SESSION['my_var'] = 'some_data';
is stored server side and set only through a server side script...

Now storing data in cookies is client-side, that i agree.. 
Am i confused or are you confusing me? :P

Wrote a class to do the form validation, so i could always make a .php that
runs the form data through the validator and sends back the response.. In
xml i think it has to be?
