I'm a newbie to web development and ruby-tmpl. Ruby-tmpl seems to be a good solution since I will want to send down javascript and/or svg to the client and templates are the way to go. However, right now I'm trying to manage sessions via uri but each time I refresh, I get a brand new session. Obviously I'm doing something stupid. Below is my code and it's templated.

However, right now I'm trying to manage sessions via uri but each time I refresh, I get a brand new session. Obviously I'm doing something stupid. Below is my code and it's templated.
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
require 'cgi'
require 'cgi/session'
require 'ruby-tmpl'
the code...
cgi=CGI.new('html4')
sess=CGI::Session.new( cgi, 'session_key'=>'id', 'prefix'=>'rubysess' )
lastaccess = sess['lastaccess']
sess['lastaccess']=Time.now.to_i
sid = sess.session_id
tmpl = Template.new
tmpl.file='testsession.tmpl'
tmpl.path='./tmpl'
tmpl.use_mod_ruby = false
tmpl.munge_output = false
info1="Last access time: #{lastaccess} "
info2=" Session id (sid)= #{sid} "
tmpl.set('info1',info1)
tmpl.set('info2',info2)
tmpl.session_param='id'
tmpl.session = sid
tmpl.print
and the template...
