You want to have more than one session per browser. So you have to prevent the visibility of session of one window of a browser from another window of the browser. > I mean what are the ways of handling this. > eg: http sessions, URL rewriting, hidden tags, i know > cookies dont work ? are there any better ways here > agian Session Cookies are shared across the windows of the browser. So they are definately ruled out. URL rewriting ( forced by turning off cookies on the servlet container) is one way and in my opinion the best way to go. Hidden tags can be used, but they will force you to go in for rolling your own session management. That is the reason I think this is not a good way to go. > basically i am interested in what the logic behind > handling this kind of issues would be ? when the method getSession(true) is called, the servlet container checks if it has received a valid session id. If a valid session ID has not been received, then it creates a new session with a new session id. So the main issue as mentioned above is to prevent the visibility of session id of the session across windows. The only problem is that all the links/action tags in your application have to pass through the response.encodeURL() method. cheers, Gokul > > Vithal >
