I'll bet it's an unfortunate timing issue caused by your use of OneShot, which has to load and save the session on each request. The redirect results in an immediate new copy of OneShot being fired up, which probably reads in the old values from disk before the new values have been saved to disk.
Switch to WebKit.cgi (and the Memory or Dynamic session store) and see if the problem goes away. - Geoff > -----Original Message----- > From: Edmund Lian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2002 3:11 PM > To: Chuck Esterbrook > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Webware-discuss] Understanding sessions > > > > Chuck wrote: > > >That sounds like a bug to me.
