Subject: Re: Session variables
Let me try to clear some things up first. What do you mean by "different"
browser?
I will assume that you meant that you created another instance of the same
browser
type (Netscape for example) from which you made the first request.
The servlet container keeps track of sessions by assigning jsessionids to
clients
in either a cookie or a URL parameter. If you have cookies enabled then no
matter
how many instances of Netscape you create, you will still only have one
session
because Netscape shares cookies across the instances. If you were to fire up
IE and
request the same page you would get a new session because you Netscape and
IE do
not share cookies (unless you appended the parameter
jsessionid=<netscapesSessionId> to the url).
There was a good discussion of this late last week.
I would need more information to properly discuss.
