IE4, IE5 session values question

   We are testing our recently JSP & Servlet developed application, we have used Tomcat 3.1.1 + Apache 1.3.12.
   We made all the development using IE 5.0 and when we test it in IE 4 we have seen that for IE 4 the session values doesn´t work correctly. Cookies are activated, and session ID works correctly but when we try to access to session objects it doesn´t work. The same JSP pages & servlets works fine for IE 5. We don´t understand where is the difference if both browsers support cookies, HTTP1.1?
any idea? suggestion?


thx

I am not sure at all, but I met the same problem ( it is very long time ). I have heard that IE 4.0 lost sessions, exactly it creates for every frame new session... what happens after its clear :-(. But I can't find exact link to MS-DEV where this problem is described.
Normally I try to use no frames, on one project ( it is chat .. without frames no possible ) I used own session manager, because project has to work over large spectrum of browsers.
I try to find more info.

P.S. Try to use Forte for Java, Internet Edition Beta, it has http monitor, it can show more :-).
