I have a set of pages with C# code attached to manage session information.
They hang their info off of the session string and store it in a MSDE table.
I have all of this code working well in one app and started another app which
needed much of the same functionality. So I copied the pages, code behinds,
web.config and appropriate DB tables to the new app (all on localhost) and
find that I am get redirected every time I login back to my login because
..IsNewSession always comes up true on the page after the login.
Just in case I messed something up, I went back and checked my old pages and
found that they were behaving fine. I double checked that the login was happy
and creating the DB information, and it is. Asp.Net / IIS seems to just be
creating a new session for every page I load in this second app.
I am hoping that someone has a couple of pointers to save me having to take
this app apart. I'm figuring I missed a setting somewhere, and I am pretty
new at Asp.Net (I had been doing CGI and / or PHP up til 2004).
TIA for any input!

OK, I have found a clue... I decided to try and add some info into the
session data itself and so put in the line:
System.Web.Http Context.Current .Session.Add("z ot", "zot");
to add some information to the session when I first came upon it. I don't
know why in my previous app I did not need to do this but in the current one
it now returns with the same session when going to a new page (or refreshing
the same one, etc).
Is the session class assuming that I didn't use it since it's data had
nothing added to it?
At this point I have enough info to continue, but would love to get any
comments.
Thanks!

Tell me if my assertion is wrong here:
The only way to prevent session hijacking is to NEVER store
authentication information (such as name/password) in the session.
Well, to never authenticate a user from information you got from the
session. Each secure app on a site must challenge the user for name
and password, each and every time the user accesses it (not just once
and then store it in the session). If a secure app is multi-page,...

In the attempt to keep the URL and code quite clean, and avoid to have a
very loooong url, we have used $_session for storing values trough the
pages.
Now, we have some clients that doesn't get any result when going on the
second page. After studying their browser, the confidentiality setting was
at the maximum. On their settings, the site doesn't work well.
Since we can't change the setting for every client, what may we do ?

Hi Patrick!
Can you give an example of how to use a frameset inside an aspx-file?
When I create a new frameset in Visual Studio.Net it just gives me a htm-File.
Or give me a link where I can find one?

Hello there,
I've just encountered a strange problem with Session. In one particular

None of them, however, got a clear explanation that would correspond to my

Hi, Is it possible to delay session creation in ASP.NET
I want the user to browse my site without any session created (no cookies set). My pages will know that is Session = null then Session has not been created and they should not rely on it.
But at the moment user puts something into shopping cart i want to trigger session creation (set the cookies) and from no own that user will have regular session.
Is it doable with .NET Session or...

I had this idea about preventing session fixation, and I'm wondering
what anyone else thinks about it. The idea is, essentially, don't
allow session ids that YOUR PHP didn't generate (and aren't yet
expired) to log in. That way if someone sticks a made-up session
ID on a URL, it won't matter, unless it happens to correspond to
an active session (guessing a user password is probably easier).
Is this already standard practice, new, or is...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
