Hello my fellow geeks/nerds/respectable programmers,

I've been playing around with Sajax (Simple AJAX http://www.modernmethod.com/sajax/ ) for a site I'm developing, and I have a question for you all...

Part of this site is members-only. While not necessary, I'd like to have the login box use ajax, but part of the process involves setting a session variable. Is it possible to do this without an http request? I know it would be possible if I managed sessions using a database to store the session information, but I'd like to do it ye olde fashione way, by just setting $_SESSION['somevar'] = someval.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
