- Make sure the url provided to window.open() is properly encoded by
server so that it includes the sessionId if necessary.

use for that
java.lang.String     encodeURL(java.lang.String url)
from the HttpServletResponse interface server side.

- Check, if cookies are disabled on client, that the sessionId is kept
on all links
- As someone mentioned, check you are not switching from an https to
http url, as sessions are unfortunately differents, browser seeing those
as different services.

Note: we use popups here in an authenticated area, no problem with IE users.
