This new window may just contain a JavaScript calendar or a JSP page (dispatched by a servlet). We have been using Internet Explorer 5 till recently to run the application and this has been fine. But we recently upgraded to I.E. 5.5 and 6.0. In both of the new versions, when a new window is opened and then closed, the session in the original window gets nullified. For example, there are places where I need to see a calendar, so I open this calendar in a new window, I use the calendar, then I close the calendar window. I then press a button (in the main window) to go to another page in my application, where all the session values are now displayed as null. Subsequent system error statements show that the session is indeed null. I am not sure this is a tomcat problem or a IE problem (probably a IE problem), but was wondering if anybody has experienced anything similar and if they have solved the problem... Note: I am using tomcat 4.01 Thanks much in advance, Amit Kelkar -- To unsubscribe: For additional commands: Troubles with the list:
