  How do you show a welcome back message for a user's second session?  
Thanks for the help!

  If you're keeping login information in a database, add a column for visits and increment it when they login. Then you can just test for visits>0

  or you can set a cookie...

then if the cookie exists (set the welcome back)...


<cfif structKeyExists(cookie, 'visited')>
   Welcome back!
</cfif>
<cfcookie name="visited" value="#now()#"
expires="never" />

In addition, you could also do a date compare... this
might be useful if you want to "say.. it's been x days
since you've been here!"....
