Hey Aaron,
I'm assuming that when you say "it loses the session" you mean that the user
no longer appears to be logged in. This could be happening for any number
of reasons. But we'll need you to tell us how your sessions are
maintained.
The breakdown could be in the way each user's browser is identifying
itself. Are you using a cookie to identify each user or perhaps a CGI
parameter? The breakdown could be in sending this value to the user to
begin with, or perhaps your code isn't retrieving the value from the browser
properly. It's also possible that there is a problem with your code that
accesses your server side session data store (perhaps a database ?). Are
you sure that your sessions are getting logged on the server side? You say
that your POST request is "working fine" for "establishing session
variables". Does your code get access to these session variables when
attempting to access them FROM THE SESSION during the post request? Is ANY
state information that you're storing in your session available to your code
during subsequent GET requests?
Try to isolate any session related code and create a component that does
nothing but accept a POST request to start a session and store session
variables and then take a GET request and print the session variables to the
browser. This will allow you to debug your setup without the confusion of
any of your business logic getting in the way. If doing this doesn't
provide enlightenment post the contents of this component on back to the
group along with a description of what you expect to happen and what's
happening. Also, make sure to answer the questions above.
Good Luck,
-- Ben
