It\u2019s time for a confession: we\u2019ve been deliberately ignoring an incredibly important aspect of Web development prior to this point. So far, we\u2019ve thought of the traffic visiting our sites as some faceless, anonymous mass hurtling itself against our carefully designed pages.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t true, of course. The browsers hitting our sites have real humans behind them (some of the time, at least). That\u2019s a big thing to ignore: the Internet is at its best when it serves to connect people<\/em>, not machines. If we\u2019re going to develop truly compelling sites, eventually we\u2019re going to have to deal with the bodies behind the browsers.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it\u2019s not all that easy. HTTP is designed to be stateless<\/em>\u2014 that is, each and every request happens in a vacuum. There\u2019s no persistence between one request and the next, and we can\u2019t count on any aspects of a request (IP address, user agent, etc.) to consistently indicate successive requests from the same person. In this chapter you\u2019ll learn how to handle this lack of state. We\u2019ll start at the lowest level (cookies<\/em>), and work up to the high-level tools for handling sessions, users and registration.<\/p>\n
