The META tags should not have an effect on cookies. Firefox would not be =
the one that expires your session, Tomcat would. Do you have a session =
timeout specified in your application?

Hi Earnie,

Cookies are allowed at the browser.  It seems for some reason that at =
then
end of loading each JSP firefox expires my session.  I use some meta =
tags
(<META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Cache-Control" CONTENT=3D"No-Cache">, <META
HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Pragma" CONTENT=3D"No-Cache">, <META =
HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Expires"
CONTENT=3D"-1">) and also set the corresponding header values using
response.setHeader but even if I remove them nothing changes.

Michael
