session tracking

i am using apache-tomcat-5.5.34,to run following JSP Code

First i open an internet explorer and type in address bar

http://localhost:8082/jsp-examples/SessionTrack/index.jsp

new session created,when i refresh the page,the varible

accessCount increases by value 1

But when i open an another internet Explorer (without closing

previous one) and type in address bar

http://localhost:8082/jsp-examples/SessionTrack/index.jsp

i am getting accessCount variable value same as in first ie

browser.

my doubt is why new session is not created for second internet

Explorer i opened.Any fault in settings of my internet explorer

thanks

Sounds like all windows of IE share the same cookies/sessions. I think that's true for all browsers, though.

Hi,
Are you using any security API ?

Ask other user to use any other browser like firefox or give him a new PC/machine

If you want to simulate multiple requests, you need to have multiple browser sessions. Here are some options:

- install multiple browsers on your PC (IE, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, etc), run a different browser for each "user".

- use "firefox -P -no-remote" to run multiple Firefox profiles simultaneously (you will need to create some additional profiles)

I use both of the above, with the "-no-remote" option to firefox being used the most in my initial testing.

Under what real-world circumstances do you expect more than one person to be bumping each other off the chair to use the same PC at the same time?
