Session Error

[shivam singhal]

Hello all,
I am developing a web-site,in which client have to log in,, after recognisation of correct user i have created a session..

ERROR : Now i am opening new tab in the same browser, and my web page allows another user to log-in?

I WANT : when new tab is open in the same browser where a user is already loggedin, the new page in new tab gets redirected to the logged in user's profile page..

REMEDY : I have tried to use scriptlets in my Home page, and validate if session does not exists, then open Home page , else connect with data base and open valid user's profile page... Still its not working..

ANY IDEA To Solve The Issue?

Filters. You should never put scriptlets on a JSP page.

oks,,

"You should never put scriptlets on a JSP page."

Yeah , i know that, but don' know the reason behind "never put scriptlets"..
can you please tell me?

They were obsoleted over 12 years ago. It's like putting vacuum tubes in your TV.

This is the sort of thing what should not only be done in a Java class, but in a filter. Otherwise you need to put it into every servlet and JSP to check up front.

How filter is mapped to the very first client's request for the Home page?

sorry, got this,,

can we map filter after strut action class??

[Bear Bibeault]

You should have mentioned you were using Struts at the outset. It may have its own means of accomplishing this.

This post has been moved to the Struts forum.

struts and servlets wouldn't work together???
