    Hi,

    Seemed to run into a wall here regarding sessions. Im currently running an application which is hosting a browser. When i click on a link which requires a new browser session to open, i lose all the session data and am forced to log back in.

    I was just wondering if there is such a thing as creating a new browser session with information already inside which it.

    You should be able to do it. What language are you using? php, asp, asp.net?

    Using Java, (j2ee + jsp's). Is it possible to create a browser session and give set a session cookie ID on it? Is this what happens when a parent browser session spawns a child browser session?

    Actually come to think of it the parent + child browser sessions are using the same process and therefore can share the same information.

    As the new browser session is creating a new process, it cant share the same session infomation as the browser running on the application.

    Will see if i can create a browser session on a new process with specfic session info.
