Session State being lost in Internet Explorer but not Firefox [modified]
-
Hi, I'm having a problem with session state being lost in the live environment when using Internet Explorer Versions 6,7 or 8. The application I am working on is www.rugbyroundup.com[^]. The behaviour should be that when a user selects a country they get a different country based page, with different Fixtures and Results available. Then, when clicking on the various Leagues, they should stay with that country. For instance, if you were to select England, followed by National 1 you would still see the England Bar after selecting the National 1 League. This is happening correctly in Mozilla Firefox. However, in Internet Explorer, after clicking the League, the Country setting returns to international!!!:mad: (this can be seen by the change of the flags towards the top of the page). What is equally infuriating is that when testing against my local development version, it functions perfectly on both browsers!!! I've done a bit of investigation into the problem. As the page is using IFRAMES I had a look at the article Session variables are lost if you use FRAMESET in Internet Explorer 6[^] but after giving the various resources the appropriate HTTP Headers the problem is still occurring. I also looked at the Trace when the pages are being run - here is a summary: LIVE ==== Mozilla Browse to index index fires twice with same session variables select country index fires twice with same session variables Got to League Fires twice with same session variables IE Browse to Index index fires once with correct session variables. Select country index fires twice, Second time, the Country code is changed, almost reset Local ===== Mozilla Browse to index index fires twice with same session variables select country index fires twice with same session variables Got to League Fires at least once --- does fire twice - page load occurred twice, thread stack was overflown... IE Browse to Index index fires once with correct session variables. Select country index fires once with correct session variables Select League league.aspx fires once with correct session variables. I would be grateful for any help with this problem
