In principle, one could try the below (a stand-alone jsp) which resides in
my application with a timeout of 30 minutes:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED] import="java.util.Enumeration,java.util.Date"
contentType="text/html"%>
<[EMAIL PROTECTED] pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<html>
<head><title>JSP Page</title></head>
<body>
<%
Enumeration reqHeaderNames = request.getHeaderNames();
String curHeaderName;
while (reqHeaderNames.hasMoreElements()){
curHeaderName=(String) reqHeaderNames.nextElement();
System.out.println(curHeaderName + ": " +
request.getHeader(curHeaderName));
}
System.out.println("TestFirefox.jsp Session ID Value: "+
request.getSession(false).getId());
%>
TEST FIREFOX LOADED
</body>
</html>
The above creates a new session wheneven reloaded in Firefox while in IE it
keeps the same.
