hi gyrus, i'm reading between the lines here, but if i'm understanding you correctly, you want to make sure the session closes when the browser closes--then and only then. if that's the case, i don't think you need js. take a look at the state management tutorials at hal helms' site (http://www.halhelms.com). the viewlet builder that runs them is a pain because it won't resize to 800x600 (in my case), but the information is worth the nuisance.
