I met the session variables problem in IIS6.
I use global.asa as web application.
Same coding, it works under IIS5 of windows 2000 and IIS5.1 of windows xp, but it lost session variables under IIS6 of windows2003.

Sometimes I need to log in more than one time to get in the required page.

Tonight, I solve the problem.

Microsoft introduced several new features into Windows 2003/IIS6 webserver that affect how sessions and application pools are handled.

*Application Pools*
Most webhosting companies host multiple websites in the same application pool. When resources are maxed out for a application pool IIS 6 starts to recycle these sites causing application variables to be lost for those recycled sites.

If you are experiencing application/session loss symptoms then we would recommend asking your webhosting company to place you in your own application pool with all recycling options disabled and the recycle worker process set to recycle only once during the day at a set time.

I made a new applicaiton pool which is used by my application only.
So the problem disappeared.

Steps as below:
Step 1:
Add new application pool.

This program is known from a Chinese Blog. Later I found the author is a PHD student of UBC, Matthew Brown.

AUTOSTITCH is the first fully automatic 2D image stitcher.
Sometime we call it a panorama program.

Capable of stitching full view panoramas without any user input whatsoever, AutoStitch is a breakthrough technology for panoramic photography, VR and visualisation applications.

AutoStitch is built using cutting edge research from the AI lab at UBC, but it's incredibly simple to use! Just select a set of photos, and AutoStitch does the rest: digital photos in, panoramas out.

Following is a demo photo I took outside of my office tower yesterday.

Made by 5 photos.

He is periodically updating the demo version of AutoStitch. Please download the latest version from this webpage.

It is free green program. Easy to use.

Thanks for Matthew Brown's wisdom to develop this smart program.

This is a web-based In-Out Board program.
It is totally free to download, use.
Pentacle (In Out Board) was started as an idea I had in the early part of 2003 when I was supposed to be running the intranet site design side of a local insurance brokerage company.

It was almost 2 months from the initial idea till the launch of Pentacle on the April 2003. During these 2 months much time was spent in researching, planning, designing, developing applications, and writing tutorials and articles.

After used internally about 2 years, I think about to share it with all other people need in/out board on their desktop .

Pentacle Free Limited Version was started, and is improvd time by time. I hope it is alway be on your desktop free of charge.
