Loss of cookies during a session with IE 6

[benoit]

Hi,

Sometimes in our web application (WebLogic Server webapp) , we got
errors : we are disconnected as if the http session was lost.

But after a little search with Ethereal (network protocol analyzer),
we understand that WebLogic is not responsible : the Server Session
Cookies given by WebLogic Server at the first request, that is after
included in all GET and POST requests to identify the user, is
suddenly deleted (and all our applicative cookies too) after a various
time, which causes a reconnection.

This problem often occurs when the main browser window opens a
secondary window (with window.open()) and data is exchanged between
these windows.

Of course, our application doesn't delete these cookies.
And the cookies don't expire.

We suppose it's due to IE 6 because with Mozilla, it OK.

Has someone an idea to resolve or bypass this problem ?

Thanks a lot.

What are the client side symptoms? Just wondering if it is related to a
similar issue I am having on our web app.

Thanks -

The client side symptoms are the loss of all the cookies (server
session cookie managed by WebLogic Server, and our applicative
cookies), and therefore the disconnection and the redirection to the
login page.

I'm trying this solution, even if it's not the same case, but only the
same symptoms : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323752/en-us

Thanks.
