This should be addressed in the servlet container settings:
you can't use cookies for storing session values because cookies are shared
between all the open browser windows, but containers will typically enable you
to use URL rewriting instead of cookies.
Once you have URL rewriting, it's very easy to "lose" a session, you simply have to
forget to use the encodeURL() servlet API method and you'll automatically lose your
session... of course, the trick in this case is to make sure you keep the session
everywhere you need it :)
Another way container specific way:
before activating the link, use some client-side javascript to remove the session
cookie (but that means you know the cookie name, which is container dependant)
