Look into using URL rewriting instead of cookies for session tracking. If the user pops open a new window based on a link with an encoded session, the session will still be shared, but if they reenter the site from a new window, it will not. But most people expect their sessions to be shared between browser windows, why fight their expectations? -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
