How to remove AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

Question

I have a url like http://www.foo.com/NewPage.aspx?pageid=10. However to some users this gets displayed as http://://www.foo.com/NewPage.aspx?pageid=10&

Now i read that the AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1 gets appended as in my web.config since I have my web.config as <sessionState cookieless="AutoDetect"/> whereas it should be <sessionState cookieless="UseCookies"/>

What I wanted to know is that is there an issue doing this change.

Answer 1

Try <sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="false" timeout="20" />

for ref remove AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport

or use this in web config,

<authentication mode="Forms">
      <forms cookieless="UseCookies"/>
</authentication>

Browsing through this issue i found in one article

You could change your setting from cookieless="AutoDetect" to cookieless="UseCookies". This will get rid of it, but users without cookies won't be able to pass session objects around. Depending on how you are using sessions, this may or may not matter.

You could also write a routine that sniffs search robots and rewrite the Url, or write .browser files for the search engines you are concerned about.
