The session will close when the browser windows is closed and some browsers may create a new session when you open a new instance, but you can't count on that. There is no reliable way I know of to detect a new browser window opening. I also don't know how you can switch sessions while leaving the first intact. Even if you could, most of the time the first session would basically be dropped as the two browser windows still share the same cookies. -- Justin Patrin
