all, we are having issues with IE(?) - javascript - window.open function and tomcat. When we deploy tomcat with basic authentication security enabled and in our jsp when ever we call
window.open(url,.....), it asks for username / password (authetication) again. how do we over come this? is this issue with IE or this is how http basic authentication works? if we try new window (ctrl + N) and paste the new jsp url, it works fine. i don't think its relavant to this, i tried setting up valve and it didn't work. https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44527 thanks dan
