Re: Two session for the same user, possible?

You can have two scripts talking to the same browser session by setting different session cookie names. Depending on which script is being loaded it will look at a different cookie to find out the session ID, once again, I have not tried it, but there is no reason why it wouldn't work, and not require option 1, 2 or 3 as Chris mentions below. -Micah On Friday 22 October 2004 12:55 pm, Chris Gregors wrote: > The session information is bound to the users computer and the browser > they use. > > option 1: user logs into app using a different computer (2 laptops) > option 2: user logs into app using a different browser (ie and firefox) > option 3: sessions have a lifetime of one screen (aka no session > persistance). > > I use option 1,2 all the time.
