Qilan supports application, session and request variables. Here the session variable is demonstrated. When a value is entered, it is stored in the named variable. The data is unique to the user and will persist throughout the session or until the expiration is reached after a period of inactivity. Expiration timeouts are set in Project Settings. After this form is closed, re-open it. Your entry will be shown.

When a session variable is created (denoting a framework field), Tomcat will attempt to store the value locally, as a cookie. If the user disables cookies, the value be stored on the server. While it is easy to clear a session value when stored on the server, an additional procedure must be used to clear the cookie value. Clicking the button below will perform this task. The JSP tag library, "Response Tags", is included with Qilan and found in /Tomcat/webapps/qilan/ WEB-INF/lib.
