servlet multiple sessions same machine

843840Feb 26 2003 — edited Dec 22 2004
I have a web application that runs uses servlets.

I have noiticed the servlet sending a cookie called JSessionId to the client machine. after having read up on this, I found out that this cookie is sent back and forth from the client to the server to uniquely identify the client.

I have found out that if you open two independant IE windows, you can have two independant sessions, but if you open up two IE windows from the same parent window or open one IE window from the other, they share the same JSessionId.

My goal is that on logon, these two windows ireespective of how they were opened should have separate JSessionIds. I thought about using URL rewriting but since I use xsl to generate html from xml, something like what I want will not be feasable.

Is there any way that I can make this work.

Thanks in advance.
