Thanks Chad and Andrew,

Chad, I tried the locking thing, but no luck.

Andrew, I'm going to do as you suggest and hit the db with every page.
The site is a small content management system for our main site so there
is not much action on it and this should be no problem. Thanks for your
help. I'll let you know how it goes.

Tom

Tom,

 When using session variables you are using cookies to identify this
when opening a browser window, the problem is that cookies are small
files that can NOT hold complex data so I find this strange coming from
an IT guy.

I personally hate sticking things in the session variables, but if you
could explain in a bit more detail the process. For example.

1) User logs in
2) User is checked for roles
Etc..

I personally have a tag that hits the db every page hit, double checks
the user is there and sets up the required roles etc.

Now I noticed that you have Application.Users but you don't say how your
getting this info in to this scope, I would maybe say that there is a
problem there. If you would like to send me a copy of these codes so
that I can see the application.users in action I might be able to help
you out here.

Our IT guy says that we are not using proxy caching, and does not think
that this is the problem (I know nothing about proxy caching)

Can you explain how it works?

He says "why not use cookies?". I've never used cookies. Is it possible
to store this kind of structure data in a cookie? How do you do it?

Sorry for the newbie questions.

Tom
