Multiple Sessions in one browser

[sandy gupta]

Hi
A user of my app goes from server www.aaa.com to www.bbb.com both sites hosted by me. Does he retrieve the session variables that i created at the time he entered aaa or is there a new session created.
It seems like the browser/server creates a new session based on the new domain. If so is there any way i can get a session variable that i set for aaa in bbb.
Thanks
Sahil

Sounds like you are going to have to go outside the HttpSession mechanism to achieve what you want. Perhaps you could use hidden variables in a form?

A third party cookie might help. For example when you are on aaa.com, load a cookie from bbb.com to store data.
Many users often turn off third party cookie though so it may not very useful in an internet application. You can also use the hidden variable approach as said earlier.
