Session Var

Heya all,
Just a quick question.
Are session var stored server side or client side?

Thank you

Hi,
If I am not wrong, session is stored on the server side while cookie is stored on the client side.
Do correct me if I am wrong =)

It's a combination of both but mainly server side. The server installs a temp cookie on the client to keep it "linked" between the user and the application. The session variable expires when the server times out (server side) or when the user ends the session by closing the browser, etc. (client side).
