So, even if you logout - you can't login as someone else? Does your logon form show up if you close your brower and return? Ie, the system _at least_ know that you need to logon, but when you logon as B, it thinks you are still A? > But. > > If my idletimeout was set to something "normal" like say 500 > seconds, > and after logout I closed my browser, entered brand new > information in > the server prompt and the user was not located in my database, they > would see the "you failed" template as expected. I'm confused. You said the situation was bad if idleTimeout was not 1, yet 500 is not 1 either. > This was very confusing, because if they could see the "you failed" > template, there was no reason why the session variables wouldn't be > set... it was all happening in the same block of code.

Not everything of course, I don't need to see the HTML of your logon form, but you get the idea. ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, ColdFusion Jedi Master for Mindseye, Inc Member of Team Macromedia (http://www.macromedia.com/go/teammacromedia) Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blog : www.camdenfamily.com/morpheus/blog Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
