Hi All,

We suplly links to third party travel sites so they can view videos of hotels etc. Users click the links on these sites and a "popup" opens displaying the multimedia. I want to use session variables to prevent repeated calls back to the database when a user navigates the pages in the popup. THE TROUBLE IS if a user keeps a popup window open (and therefore that session is still current), but then opens another popup, the session variables from this new popup overwrite the existing ones. A new session is not created on the opening of the new popup.

Is there a way round this i.e. to force a new session or to have mutliple sessions for the same application? Does anyone have any simple suggestions PLEASE?

Thank All........Aaron

    Query caching might be a simpler approach than session variables.
