Question on browser sessions

[MarleneD]

Hi:

If I have an open browser on site A and click on a link. This will transfer me to site B.

If I hit the Back feature on the browser talking me back to site A.

Will this be a new session on site A or will this be recognized as a continuation of a previous session?

Is your question...more in general...or do you have a specific problem you are trying to solve.

Most web applications handle sessions within the scope of the application, howeve, I believe IIS creates a session identifer for you as well.

I fairly sure that if siteA created a session for you, when you return to SiteA after visiting SiteB the application will still have access to your session. Sometimes a cookie can be stored on the client...and used as an identifier as well to the site.

I hope this helps.
