If you click on signout link, session data (cached user information) is deleted. If you close all browser windows, browser forgets session id and webserver deletes session data when session expires. When browser is started again and connects to server, new session id is generated. If you don't close browser, session data is preserved until session expires. When browser connects to server, session id is reused. -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
