Hi Ron,

It doesn't seem to use the session - though it's a very useful module in 
its own right anyway. I originally wanted to store data in the session 
for later retrieval, but have found a way to use Storable and 
encode_base64 to generate a string which passes as a hidden field 
between form submissions (user-tampering not really an issue for my 
apps). Works well so far, and saves having to purge the session of stale 
data.
