Dear all,
I have a JSP file that sets the session length to 0, i read somewhere that
this would mean the session would only expire when the browser window is
closed.
This same JSP file opens anather JSP file (a viewer) in a new window using
JavaScript. However, after a few seconds, or even possibly after clicking
outside the window, the session object im using ceases to exist and i get a
null pointer exception. here's the code:
Main JSP file:
<%
String[] jobFiles;
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(0);
%>
.........
<%
if(fileHandler.validateDir(fileHandler.getJobID())){
fileHandler.findResults();
jobFiles = (String[])fileHandler.getXmlFileNames();
if(jobFiles.length != 0){
%>
<p><B>Results</B>
<br/>Press a button to see the results for a chain pair in the
viewer.<br/>
<form><table>
<%
for(int i = 0;i<jobFiles.length;i++){
%>
<tr>
<%
if(fileHandler.getModel()){
%>
<td>
<input type="button" value="Model: <%=
fileHandler.getChMo(jobFiles[i]) %>"
onclick="window.open('monster/viewer.jsp?number=<%= i
%>', 'viewer', 'height=800,width=1100,dependent=1')"/>
</td>
<td>
<!--
<input type="button" value="Model: <%=
fileHandler.getChMo(jobFiles[i]) %>" onclick="window.open('monster/<%=
fileHandler.getDir() + jobFiles[i] %>', 'examples', 'width=600, height=300,
scrollbars=yes, dependent=1')" />-->
</td>
<%
}else{
%>
<td>
<input type="button" value="Chains: <%=
fileHandler.getChMo(jobFiles[i]) %>"
onclick="window.open('monster/viewer.jsp?number=<%= i
%>', 'viewer', 'height=800,width=1100,dependent=1')"/>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<%
}
jobFiles[i] = fileHandler.getDir() + jobFiles[i];
}
%>
</tr>
<%
session.setAttribute("Files", jobFiles);
%>
</form></table>
<jsp:getProperty name="fileHandler" property="output"/>
<%
}else{
%>
<p> No results have been found yet. Please check later.
<br/> If it has been too long, please email the <a
href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">webmaster</a> with the job id.
<jsp:getProperty name="fileHandler" property="output"/>
<%
}
}else{
%>
<br/>This job never existed. Please try again, or email the <a
href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">webmaster</a> with the name of the file
used for the job.
<%
}
%>
when i click on one of the resulting buttons i open a new window with this
code:
<jsp:useBean id="fileHandler2"
class="edu.northwestern.ls.monster.UploadBean2" scope="session"/>
<%
String[] files = (String[])session.getAttribute("Files");
String file = files[Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("number"))];
%>
<html><head><title>Results for chains: <%= fileHandler2.getChMo(file)
%></title></head>
<body>

<BR/><B><U>NB: In order to use the print and save buttons within any
operating system, <a href=".java.policy">this file</a> must be saved in your
home directory.
<BR/>WARNING: If you understand java policy files, please edit as you feel
fit, <BR/>otherwise it is strongly recommended that you remove or rename
this file before using ANY OTHER APPLET.</B></U><BR/>

I get this suspicion that the session in the first page is not being relayed
into the session in the viewer page...
anyone?
