Re: Copying/Duplicate User Session

So why would they open a new session then and have two windows open rather
than tracking through one session?

They can technically do this without you ever knowing so it seems not to
matter (control-n as long as new IE windows on their system are set created
to share information from original).
So if they did this.. they can have 10 windows open and you would never know
unless you implement some really kludgy items to try to get around that..
assuming all browsers will work the same and load a new page up when a user
control-n (IE does load a new page by default) rather than just sharing the
current page. Similar to Robert Taylors suggestion. But if you are running
frames and a user refreshes a single frame this could break it.

Subject: [DOTNET-WEB] Copying/Duplicate User Session

Is there any way I can duplicate a user's session - I'm looking for a
solution to the following problem. Our web site has to allow the user to
open a new window with a copy of the current session - we are currently
thinking of having a hyperlink at the top of the screen that says launch
new window which simply opens a browser window with the current screen
what we'd really like to do is duplicate the session to a new session
id. The reason being is we store the user navigation information within
session (the pages the user has visited within the site) and we need
this to be independent of window.



Regards

Robert.
