Disclaimer: I'm new to the REST school of thought, and I'm trying to wrap my mind around it. So, I'm reading this page, Common REST Mistakes, and I've found I'm completely baffled by the section on sessions being irrelevant. This is what the page says: "There should be no need for a client to "login" or "start a connection." HTTP authe...
I am setting the value of Session["UserID"] to Id of logined user, so I can know who the user is. But I want to know all users logined my page, and show the list of them. ...
Hi there, I'm using JSF with facelets and I need to get the request and session parameters inside the JSF page. In JSP pages i got this parameter like that : "${requestScope.paramName}" or "${sessionScope.paramName}". But now after using JSF there are only beans and you can't get any value except bean attributes. NOTE: the session attri...
What are the do's and don'ts about Cache VS Session VS Cookies? For example: Im using Session variables a lot and have sometimes problem in a booking-application when users starts to order products and then goes to lunch and come back some hours later and continue the booking. I store the booking in the session until the user confirm or...
In web applications user login information is usually stored in a session but how about windows applications? Is using a singleton the right thing to do? Should I just use a static property? Lets say that I store the login information in a static property ApplicationController. LoggedInUser. When a user logs in successfully, that proper...
We have a couple of Django applications deployed on the same subdomain. A few power users need to jump between these applications. I noticed that each time they bounce between applications their session cookie receives a new session ID from Django. I don't use the Django session table much except in one complex workflow. If the use...
I'm using Classic ASP and a bit of AJAX to post the contents of a form back to the page on which the AJAX form lives. Upon AJAX POST the page saves one of those fields (email, to be specific) into a Session variable. The user then goes about their business - perhaps requesting the page again via normal HTTP. However, this leaves my brow...
I'm having reports and complaints from my user that they will be using a screen and get kicked back to the login screen immediately on their next request. It doesn't happen all the time but randomly. After looking at the Web server the error that shows up in the application event log is: Event code: 4005 Event message: Forms authentic...
Hi all Why are my session variables being dropped here? I submit a form using the submit button and create session variables of the values to allow them to be carried to other pages. All's fine. If I now move back and forward between the form and form handler using the browser buttons (as some user sometime will probably do) Firefox and...
I have two applications, one is the front end application, another is the backend one. Each application has their own copy of identical user database. When a user logs into the front end application, I will also simultaneously log int the backend application using the web services provided by the backend application. The question no...
Is it possible to modify the values inside the super global array _Session in PhP? Assume that the _Session is writing to files. The reason I ask this is because I have two application, the front end and the back end. The backend uses some variables inside the _Session object, and the front end must be able to modify those values so th...
Assume that you are doing a banking application. If users are logged into your site, how to detect their inactivity and ask them to log out if they remain inactive for a period of time? Inactive here means they have either switch to other tabs, or not touching the browser application. I guess think I can do this by registering every mo...
I am using the httprequest class in one of my applications to request a cross domain page. Basically I needed to inlcude two pages based on thge logged in state of the user, via cross domain ajax request. Due to security issues this is not allowed. So what I did was I created a proxy page which uses the httprequest class to request the ...
I have two instances of Oracle Application Server (OAS) clustered together and replicating sessions. Whenever I terminate one of the instances by killing the process, the other instance picks up and contains the session. Everything works as expected. If I gracefully shutdown one instance (using opmn stopall) of OAS, HttpSessionDestroyedE...
I have an ASP.NET application using Forms Authentication. When the user clicks the Sign Out button on the page it runs the following code. FormsAuthentication.SignOut(); Response.Expires = 0; Response.Cache.SetNoStore(); Response.AppendHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); However the user can still just press ...
Suppose a user is editing a record from a database, in the schema you have a field named 'lock' so users can not edit concurrently the same record, once the user ends editing you set lock = false to allow other users to edit the record.

For example, my front end application has the domain www.example.com/*, whereas my backend as the job.example.com/*. My front end application can locate on one server...
I thought this would be simple, but I sure am having a lot of trouble doing this: The title of this question may be a bit misleading. I don't have to use a gridview. In fact, I know the GridView is probably not the way to go on this. I just didn't know how else to title it. But, for now just consider: I have a very simple class called ...
Does the OnSessionStart / Session_Start event still only fire once (total) in a server farm environment, or since requests are handled by multiple servers, could it fire up to once per server? ASP.NET / IIS6 or 7 It should not be assumed that the server is using Sticky Sessions. ...
I am interested in knowing how session management and cookies work in PHP. I want to know their underlying mechanism, like how the browser interacts with the cookies, and how the cookies are used to validate the session data in the server. Is there any web resources that allow me to learn that? ...
