Sorry for writing incorrect information.

session.getAttribute(PREFIX + "AMTrustOfficerMbrType") statement doesnt' return NULL. It does return a Vector but the vector has Zero elements in it.

i.e the session value is not null , it's empty.

any ideas ?
Thanks

Since the session mechanism is not going to magically replace your vector with a new empty one, it MUST be your code that does it. I would add logging statements to check if the sessionID (with getId()) is the same in both JSP and servlet as a first debugging step.
