Problem with session time out

Hi
I am currently working on a project and i happened to encountered a problem
which is very pricky.

I have used formsAuthentica tion in my project. Manually codes an
authenticationT icket. And now i realise a problem which has something to do
with session expiry. My project includes popups of windows. And i realise
that when my session expire, the javascript link on the parent window will
still open up the child window and the redirection to the login page was
done on the pop up instead. But i would like to redirect on the parent
window instead of the popup window.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

All I can say is somehow track whether the login page is displayed in a
popup window, then redirect the window.opener to the login page and close
the popup window (this all happens in the popup window's Javascript,
meaning in login.aspx, e.g.).

Perhaps the easiest way to tell if your popup was opened by one of your
links is to add some querystring arg (like &window=popu p) and then
login.aspx can check for this and do the above logic.

But you have to do this yourself; your link is popping up via Javascript
so there's no way for the server to tell the browser what has happened.

Hello, I'm learning ASP.NET, and am having a strange problem with some example code from the book I'm using. The code increments and displays the value stored in a session variable when the "Add" button is clicked. In addition, the session variable is reset to zero when the "Empty" button is pressed. The problem is if the value is non-zero and the page is reloaded the value is incremented. It appears as if the "Add" onClick event...
