hi, please can someone help? i am building a struts 1.1 based web app using j2sdk1.4.2 & tomcat 4.0.6. i'm using a 3rd-party tree applet for site navigation (a constraint specified by the client). if a user does the following steps - in *EXACTLY* the following order:
1) *FIRST* load http://www.thefreelancer.net:8080/soa/jsp/enterAreaToRead.do? areaid=3. you should be taken to the error page. 2) then, load http://www.thefreelancer.net:8080/soa/jsp/mockups/index.jsp. you can see that the user is "logged in" by the message at the very bottom of the page. (simulated by instantiating a user been inside a scriptlet and placing it in the session) 3) then click on the "Standard Area Page" node of the navigation applet on the left-hand side of the page. if you've done the steps in the above order, then you will have been forwarded to the error page (which isn't suppose to happen because you are "logged in"). *IMPORTANT* in order to reproduce the problem i am describing, all the above 3 steps *MUST* take place in the same browser session and they *MUST* be followed in the numbered order above. the error page that appears in step 1 is meant to happen if the user *IS NOT* logged in, so step 1 is fine. if there *IS* a logged in user in the session, (which there *IS* after step 2) then the error page should *NOT* be appearing in step 3. the problem is this: if a user's very *FIRST* visit to the site is the enterAreaToRead.do action, then - even if the user *IS LOGGED IN* - any subsequent attempt to execute that enterAreaToRead.do action from the navigation applet results in the enterAreaToRead.do action ignoring the logged in user which *HAS* been placed into the session in step 2. there is something peculiar happening where it seems like the applet is working with one session and the action is working with a totally different session. *HOWEVER*, if a user's very first visit to the site is the url in step 2, then everything works as it should. any ideas? thanks in advance for your help. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
