.NET Forum / Languages / C# / October 2007Session.IsNewSession with Firefox
Hi, Can any one tell me why Session.IsNewSession doesn't work with Firwfox broswer? Z. Su Zhangming, Well, how are you testing this? Are you sure you have cookies enabled? Or, is there possibly some sort of plugin for FireFox that could be interfering with the cookie that is being used for session management?

Su 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. > Zhangming, > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >> >> Z.

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.

If the property is false, then a new session was not started. In what situation doesn't it do what you expect, and what do you expect exactly?
