Losing session with popup windows?

Dear all,
This is really a one-off problem and only applies to a single user.

The site is hosted on a windows 2003 machine with users accessing it
across a local network.

Basically, a user on a website can logon successfully and browse around
the site, but when they open a page thats in a popup (activated using
javascript and looking at a page in same directory as the page they are
opening the window from), the session is not picked up and I display a
message saying "session ended - please logon".

My check is: if (Session["loggedInUs er"] == null) etc...

The thing is, the session hasn't actually ended and when they close the
window down, they can continue browsing.

This is only happening for one user. The rest of the users on the
network are absolutely fine.

Has anyone encountered this problem before as I havent had much joy
looking around the web for answers. Is this potentially a network
problem?

Kind regards,
Andy

I'm maintaining (read: I didn't write it, nor do I have the time to spend to rewrite it) an application that is suddenly giving me grief. The reason I say suddenly, is because we're in the process of transitioning the server on which it runs from Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, to 2003 server (going from IIS 5 to IIS 6). This problem hasn't really occurred on the 2000 server machine, but it's happening MUCH more on the new 2003 box (not...

Session("UserName") is set when someone logs in. Get to a page that displays a record where you can type a comment. The form has an onSubmit event that calls a javascript function. That function sets a javascript variable called beenChecked = true and then calls a PopUp window to spell check the comment. When it's done spell checking, it calls the submit method on the form tag of the opening window. The method evaluates that it's...

When we open a window (using client-side jscript ie. window.open("/Site/Popup.aspx?...",...)) from Page1.aspx, the called page Popup.aspx does not have access to the Session variables present in Page1.aspx.

I have a .NET (1.1 framework) application that is losing a session variable on only a few PC's. The main page is loading up in a frame in a Portal application. On the Page_Load it stores an object with the user id and password into the session. The web page includes a set of links.

Hi, This isn't a mission critical question but I thought I'dl throw it out there for your feedback as it's a bit curious. I have developed a shopping cart for an application I'm working on which is loosely based on the e-commerce example in the quickstarts tutorial. In the cart display I have provided functionality so that when a user clicks on a product name a popup is opened with the full product details displayed.

I know this issue has been brought up many times, but I have tried many of the solutions to no avail. I wanted to give my specific case to see if someone could be of any help. We are using the sessionstate inproc mode and users are randomly losing their session. I do not believe it is happening across all users at one time. It seems to happen to different users at different times, but I am only going off heresay. The aspnet worker...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
