I should have been more clear in my explanation. If you use 1 IE & 1
Netscape browser they do not share sessions. Everything works fine. The
problem is when you use 2 IE or 2 Netscape browsers.
Additional info:
The user info is stored in session variables not application variables.
We are locking all application & session variables.

Possible reasons:
1. If you open NS and login you get that session. If you open
IE and
login you get another session, they don't share cookies. Possibly you mean
separate windows and not browsers?
2. You are storing the login in an application variable and not
a session
variable, therefore when you login as Bob, everyone else in the world sees
Bob's info.
3. Somehow you got two different browsers to share cookies
(cool trick).
4. Your not locking when setting your session which can cause
some strange
problems.
Send us what 'Browsers' your talking about and OS if one of
these are not
the answer.

Subject: Session management in multiple browsers problem
I am having an issue with keeping state between 2 browsers on the same
machine.
Here is an example of the problem:
A person logs into the application in a browser as Bob.
He then opens another browser on the same machine and logs in as Jane.
Now both browsers are logged in as Jane in the application. (PROBLEM!)
We are keeping state by using session variables. I thought that session
variables were specific to a paticular browser and not to a paticular
machine. I guess this is not the case. Has anyone run across this
problem? Any solutions/suggestions?
Thanks,
Scott
