RE: HTTP Server's jobs for CGI applications

[Leslie Russell <leslier@xxxxxxxxxx>]

OK Lets see I have a URL ;
http://www.leslier.com/topsecretstuff/secret1.html
Now it doesnt take a hacker to try and change the URL to ./secret2.html
But using the combination of server side scripts and cookies I can 
generate these two pages on the fly for the user without ever changing 
the url.
Now which is more secure?
