The Session

[John Miller]

Hi, one of my servlets use the following code (session.putValue("accesslevel", "10"), session is declared with HttpSession = request.getSession().
If if want to access the value I just placed into the session in another servlet what do i do? At the moment I'am using session.getValue("accesslevel"), but it only return null.
Points to note:
I know getValue() and putValue() are decrecated, I tried using setAttribute() and getAttribute but the results where the same.
Im using JRUN and everyting is set up perfecting.
Im using Internet Explorer 5.5.
Thanks

If you want to creatre the session new use HttpSession = request.getSession(true), else to get to the current session if there is one, use HttpSession = request.getSession(false).
I am not sure if you can create/access a session without a boolean parameter to the getSession method.
