Interestingly we have just developed a site that used no cookies whatsoever,
handling all session management through URL rewriting.
We got to a point, however, about two weeks ago where we found that we did, after
all, need to (try and) maintain session state between visits. Although people could
bookmark the session, we decided to switch back to cookies as #1, with a fall-back
to URL rewriting.
You could do URL rewrite only sessions in PHP if you did your own URL rewriting
through creative use of the ob_... set of Output Control functions. This would
allow you to use sessions completely without cookies - if that's really what you
want.
Regards,
Andrew.
