Just off the top of my head and without doing any research into the topic. Assuming everything you said is accurate, that you can't sustain the session with an AJAX request, when your user clicks the link, it could load a 1px x1px iframe into a div on the page that loads a "keep alive page", thus sustaining the session.
Ideally, the ajax call will sustain the session, but testing will be requred to prove that. =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
