We created a web-based application that is divide into 3 frames. In a
first step, the user must identify himself through one of the frames. The
authentication servlet then store some values into the user's session.
Then, we fill the 3 frames with different dynamic contents generated by
servlets and based on the session stored values. In Explorer and Netscape
6, everything works fine but with Netscape 4, it seems that the session
values can only be retrieved for the authenticated frame.
Here's my questions:
- Is my assumption that Netscape 4 handle session differently and is
keeping one session per frame instead of one per browser is true?
- Is there a way in the servlets to know that a request is coming from
the same browser but from a different frame and then, give the access to the
authenticated frame values to the non-authenticated one without compromising
security?
- Is there any way of doing such a thing (besides using some script to
force all the frames to log and then, generate 3 requests instead of one)?
Regards.
