Using CTRL-N creates a new window with the same session-id, indeed. So my 
question takes on an other course (knowing that all browser have this kind 
of behaviour): If a user asks for his personals on tab A and tab B in FF 
(for example), deletes his data on tab B and then tries to edit it on tab A, 
than I have a situation that I don't want. How can I act?

thanks
