Hi all,
Maybe this is not much help but here is what have i done:
I have used JavaScript:
var curentdate=new Date();
var milisec=curentdate.getTime();
and appended this 'milisec' to my url as a parameter (like URL rewriting).
I think that an user to have both browser windows
open the same page (same session) in exactly the same milisecond
is very unlikely to happen.
But this needs JavaScript ...
Best wishes,
Andras.
