The Session_onEnd event isn't the most reliable thing in the world. You're better off putting the code to do your email in the page that gets called with the success / failure code from the other site. As for closing the window which opens the popup, if this is a normal browser window, i.e. not one which you've opened using javascript, then you can't avoid the confirmation dialog as it's a security feature built into the browser to stop sites closing windows which they haven't opened. Do you particularly need the window which pops up to be a popup? If not, you could just do a response.redirect to it in the same window, avoiding the closing window problem all together. Dan

Firstly, the app needs to automatically close calling window when the popup loads without confirmation dialog. secondly, trying to get the proper code snippet to insert in the session_onstart and end subroutines to handle the senerio properly. I've not handled it yet as I was still reading up sessions. kinda new to this but u've made it a lot understandable. hope am not bugging but need the help badly now. kene --- In [email protected], "Dan Powderhill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Ken... > > What is it that you're having a problem with concerning the session > state?
