Hi, I have a very peculiar situation. I have an webapplication whose main page(login.jsp) contains 2 frames. Each frame loads pages from different web application .Frame1 has index.jsp which is loaded from the same webapp as login.jsp and frame2 loads search.jsp from a different application running on a different tomcat.
In frame1(index.jsp) there is a link which when user clicks opens a new window with url which is the url of frame2(search.jsp). Basically the authentication of frame1 and frame2 are done when user logs on to frame1(index.jsp) and hence it is expected that when user clicks on the link in frame1 to open frame2 url the user is already authenticated. This works perfectly when ROOT context of tomcat is not defined (Context path=""). If ROOT context is defined to this application(application in frame1) IE doesn't behave as expected . It shows the login page of frame2 app instead of showing the next page as if the user is not logged in. Basically the session is not passing from frame2 to the new window. The same works in netscape and other browsers irrespective of the ROOT context. IE also behaves well when this application is not set as ROOT context. Can someone please shed some light on this peculiar situation. Thanks, Anna. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
