What I mean is, if a user is connected to a php page that uses sessions and that is involved in a time consuming operation (say 20 seconds or more) before returning an answer, and the user also opens a second window in the same browser to connect to another page in the same site that uses sessions the second window will hang till the first operation is complete. While testing, I was able to show that if I don't use sessions this doesn't happen. I need to use sessions and would like to allow users to have multiple windows connected to my site (it is an intranet application). Apache 1.3.12 with PHP 4.0RC2 (it's just a test site at the moment) --- Bill Rausch, Software Development, Unix, Mac, Windows Numerical Applications, Inc. 509-943-0861 bill@numerical.com
