Why doesn't Session_OnEnd detect when the user closes the browser window. I have a .log file where i record the user information when he clicks logout button. But when the user closes the window, my code does not record the log. It looks like the Session_OnEnd is not fired atall.
I did google on this and found solution's using Javascript. Is there a way to resolve this issue other than using some client-side like Javascript. Isn't there any Vbscript to do this.
If I start a session on our web app then close all browsers, I expect that
the session cookie would be deleted and that the session itself would exist
until it expired. I then start a new instance of the browser expecting to
get a new session id and a new session, but instead I reconnect to the
unexpired session. Does anyone know why the session cookie is persisting
despite the closure of all the IE windows?
This is a strange thing. My Session object is expiring when the page is refreshed.This is happening in just one partiular page. Rest of the pages are working fine
View Replies View RelatedI have a password protected website. I save the user's permission information in a session variable. I'm trying to extend the life of the session variable beyond 20 minutes, but it's not working. At first I tried putting the code in the global.asa file, but when that didn't work, I put it at the top of the page.
Session.Timeout=60
When I refresh the page after 30 minutes, the session variable has expired.

1.Want to expire or time out asp pages and have them automatically log user out and clear all sessions.
2. Log out gracefully.My current logout is a 2 step process that click logout on the menu, then the user get a message
that they need to either choose to log in again or close browser.I do have a simple Session.Abandon and a prayer that they don't use the BACK button.If the user does use the back button,everything is back like they never even logged out.
i am getting into a problem: i have the following code at the top of the page
Response.Expires = -1000;
Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
Response.AddHeader("CacheControl", "private");
Response.CacheControl = "no-cache";
Now when some one click on the page and go to page 2 and then click browser back button to come back to page 1, i want the page to expire. I want the user to click the link from page 2 to go back to page 1 and not the browser back button. IT is not happening.
i am making a quiz program. User answers a question, clicks next, and new question aperas. i want that user cannot answer one question twice. but user can click browser back button to go back and re-answer the previous question. I want that user, cannot go on the previous page.
View Replies View RelatedI have added this like of code I found on an ASP book:
<% Session.Timeout = 30 %>
My understanding of this code is that if the user leaves the page on idle for more than 30 minutes, it will automatically close the session, and if they decide to continue using the site, then it will automatically send them to the login page so that they can log on again. Is that right? Code:
When something doesn't work, disable error skipping stuff like "on error resume next" which just tend to cover up the problems, sweeping them under the rug as it were...
Echo important variables as you go along to make sure they are getting set as you expect: what is the "query" variable, is it the string you are expecting?
Response.Write "inside Database Recordset Loop, query has a value of" & query & "<br />" & VbCrLf
If not, echo each of the three pieces and see if one or more is not getting passed from the form.
I don't understand the
Call data.MoveNext()
Wend
Call data.Close()
Call objConn.Close()
part at all, what are you trying to do here?
Use flags along the way, to signal how far you get, like echoing when you enter and after you leave key loops or control structures:
Response.Write "inside Database Query Section<br />" & VbCrLf
Response.Write "inside Database Recordset Loop<br />" & VbCrLf
Response.Write "Database Connection just closed successfully<br />" & VbCrLf
etc. etc.
I recently moved an application from W2K / IIS5 to W2K3 / IIS6.
In the new environment user sessions expire after 2-3 minutes? I can't
find any solution to this, although I found quite a few references to
this problem on the web.
how to find the session expired or not without using any session varaibles?
View Replies View RelatedI have a site that I'm trying to migrate to ASP.NET from ASP, and the
foremost stumbling block I'm hitting is session state between the ASP
and ASP.NET applications. In order to access this information, I'm
doing a HttpWebRequest from the ASP.NET side into an .asp page,
passing the session name on the get in order to request it from the
ASP side and write it back to the response stream, giving ASP.NET
access to it. Of course I change sessions each time I make the call
from the ASP.NET side.
Soooooo, I'm thinking to myself, "Self, shouldn't you be able to fake
out the server by getting the session cookie from the initial usage of
the asp, pass that data to the ASP.NET, and use that to send a request
back the ASP side under the appropriate session?"
From a real high level, I enter the site via a .asp page. This page
in turn calls .aspx page from within a frame ......
I want to create an administration page which lists all the current users who are on the site at the moment.
I know coldfusion has this feature built in using the SessionTracker class... does ASP have something similar? If not... is there any way I can just iterate through all the session files on the server...?
I have a site developed using ASP, but each page I enter has a different session id when accessing the site using the domain name of the site. When accessing the site from my network and using the internal IP address, it is OK. Any ideas?

I wrote a website, which uses the session to store and track some vars.
Now I am gonna to covert it to desktop application by Activesite compiler 5, however, it doesnot support session , cookie , application() . SO ,I have no idea to find something can instead of session.
My orignal processing: Session -> modify Session var -> store to Database.
There is a problem about ASP session ID. ASP session is implemented by storing session id in a session cookie, but I read this cookie in ISAPI Filter, get a string as following:
ASPSESSIONIDQADCQQTS = IAOFCBBCGDGMDGCNJIKPNBAN
But the real session ID is 554851848. (Real sessionID is sessionID property the ASP session object)
Problem is what is relation between them? And how to get real session ID from cookie session ID.
I did a session("adminlogin")=1, if I post it to the same page, it returns true. But if I response.redirect to another page. This value doesn't exist anymore. This is on the actual server where all the ms security is updated.
The same script worked okay on my test server (the security patch not patched yet.)
Has anyone encountered this? How do you overcome it?
I tried searching the net it says the problem lies with a ms security patch. How I wish I can unintall that patch.

I have a home page in html with two buttons to call my main.asp in another window my problem is:

I have asp and asp.net web application. When I run it in IE7 in first tab it
starts a new session. When I open second tab and browse to the same site the
new session is not started (infact I need to have new session there).
Whereas, 2 IE instances generate 2 unique sessions. Only issue is with IE
tabs. Firefox also has similar things but lets not talk about firefox here.
I am more concerned with IE only.
In my login script I set session("User") = rs("User") the session timeout is set to 20 min
Do I need to setup some kind of update session variable on each page so that the timeout does run out or does iis update the variable aslong as I'm browsing the website ?
And another thing, <% application("something") %> works fine on my test server but once I implement it onto the main webserver I dont get any text out, is there some kind of switch that enables this function ?
How can I know if a user session had timed out ?
I always get an error in my asp page when I try to access
my session variable if it timed out.
My buttons default as you can see in the code. But I now want to take what is already choosen in database and chose apropriate button. Can I use a session to choose a radio button?
Code:
<TD><b><font face="Arial" color="#000080">Password</TD>
<TD><input type ="text" value="<%=Password %>" input name="Password" size="50" ><input type ="Hidden" value="<%=userNumber %>" input name="userNumber" size="50" ></TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD><b><font face="Arial" color="#000080">Billing Choice</font></b></TD>
<TD><fieldset style="padding: 2">
<input type="radio" value="Monthly" checked name="R1">Monthly
<input type="radio" name="R1" value="Quarterly">Quarterly

I am using the session(loggedin) to see if a user is logged into that section of the site. The problem is that it is timing out on them, is there a way to define the length of the session (I think it times out at 10 or 20 mins currently), but to extend it to an hour or so. Any thoughts.
