Nicholas,
Thank you for your email. I swithered "trace on" in a .aspx file and tested
it in IE and Firefox. Both of them have ASP.NET_SessionId cookie. My page
decectes if Session.IsNewSession is true, the page will add an another
cookie.
When I open the page in IE as new Window, the cookie is added, but when I
open it in Firefox with a new Window, the cookie is not included.
As long as you are just opening a new window in the current instance of
the browser, you don't get a new session. All windows in the same
instance of a browser are in the same session.
There is only one instance of Firefox running at any time, as opposed to
IE, where you can have several instances. If you try to start a new
instance of Firefox, it will just open a new window in the current instance.
You can try out the difference in IE if you open a new window from the
current window, then you don't get a new session. It's only when you
start a new instance of the browser that you get a new session.
