Not sure I'm getting this right, but I put the code for creating the ID inside a method after checking for a valid password. My problem arose when I tried to check my code using different sessions initiated from the same browser. I only have IE
( because that's the one that came installed on my system and I haven't installed a different browser yet because I heard that problems can arise from the browsers fighting for the position of default browser and I don't feel like messing around with any nonsense like that right now.)
Anyhoo, I was going nuts trying to figure out a way to keep the ID number from being updated in each window when I accessed the video list or added a new video, but if it's a browser issue, I feel much better about it!
