Dynamic Websites & User "account pages"

Thanks. I think I understand now.

You can use either. Use Cookies if you want the info stored on the user's
computer so the information can be remembered from session to session. Use
Sessions if you just want the info to persist till they log out.

You can make it their page by group by using Access Levels in the server
behaviors. You can make it even more customized by storing their
information in a database table that is identified by their ID number and
populate the page on the fly according to the user ID, which you would of
course store in a session so it would persist across the entire set of
pages.
