> Using default window mode on Chrome (equates to LAZY?), if a clickable URL ends in {{?&dswid=XYZ}}, opening that link in a new tab clones the old tab's {{window.name}} and {{dswid}}, instead of generating a new id.
> I had this (very confusing) problem in my application when a urlrewrite outbound-rule accidentally used {{&dswid=XYZ}} instead of {{?dswid=XYZ}}, but for simple applications it is easiest to reproduce like this:
> 1. visit a page URL which ends with {{?dswid=XYZ}}
> 2. use the javascript console to check {{window.name}}
> 3. edit the URL so that it ends with {{?&dswid=XYZ}}
> 4. paste the edited URL into a fresh browser tab (where {{window.name}} is empty)
> 5. use the javascript console to check {{window.name}} for the new tab
> Both tabs have the same {{window.name}}, which leads to all window-based scopes in the session being shared for future requests in the affected tabs.
> I haven't dug into the code too closely, but I suspect {{windowhandler.js}} is setting {{window.name}} when it sees {{&dswid}} in the URL, instead of triggering a lazy redirect as I think it should.
