I have exactly the same problem. I am working on a solution but still no luck. This problem happens to me only when i am using Netscape 4.79. IE 5.5 and Netscape 6.2.2 are OK.
I find that IE 5.5 creates a new session in a new window when IE 5.5 is run by clicking on its icon. However, if a new IE 5.5 window is opened by javascript from another IE 5.5 window, the same session is maintained. As for Netscape 6.2.2, it doesn't matter if a new windows is opened by clicking on its icon or by javascript from another Netscape window. As for Netscape 4.79, the session is also maintained if another window is opened ny clicking on its icon. However, if a new window is opened by javascript from another window, the new window is able to access the session to render the info for display but when an action is done on the new window, a new session kicks in and the old session is unknown. Somehow, Netscape 4.79 pops up a new window as a different process. Please HELP!!! I hope my description of the problem is clear enough. -----Original Message----- From: Nancy Crisostomo Martinez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, March 02, 2002 02:56 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: session object [urgent!] I have found a kind of bug or I don't know what.... I tried to access to the session's attributes, with another servlet-engine and it works perferct! So... I think Tomcat 3.3 (I'm using) has a bug or maybe it is a cause of a bad configuration because the track is lost.... What do you think about it? Does any of you have the same problem with sessions?
