2 windows, 2 sessions possible?

Hi,

This is probably not asp.net specific but I'll ask anyway:

Is it possible to have one session started in one browser window, then have
a link from that window open up another window in a new session, and still
have the original window maintain its original session?

thanks,
Frank

Possible, certainly.

Guaranteed, definitely not.

Sure, you just need to use cookie-less sessions... ;)

That simply isn't true.

Specifically, the paragraph entitled Regenerating Expired Session
Identifiers: "This behavior can result in the unwanted sharing of session
data when a link that contains a cookieless SessionID is shared with
multiple browsers, perhaps through a search engine or other program."
