Sessions getting mixed up

We're getting reports from a customer saying that if she browses to any page
on their site, then from another PC browse to a different page on the site,
then when the first browser is refreshed, it shows the page from the 2nd
session.

Could this be caused by a cache somewhere ?

Thanks

Could be... are you using static or application variables?

Or did you write a custom caching mechanism... maybe that screwed up?
 
We're using Application and Session variables without any caching of our
own.

I can't reproduce the problem on our network, even after trying for quite
awhile.
 
Hi Adrian,

As for the problem you mentioned, I also think it is likely due to
something in the page logic rather than the asp.net's buildin session mixed
up. Does the problem your customer found occur on a certain page or many
pages in that web application ? IF it can be narrow down to some certain
pages , we can do some further check in their code logic. In addtition,
those application level's global storage such as ApplicationState, or
Application Cache are also the potential causes, we may also have a check.
If you have any other questions or findings, please feel free to post here.
Thanks..

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for your followup and glad that you've figured out the problem.
Should have expected that it is the cookieless session but did forget that
point. Anyway, thanks again for posting here. Have a good day!
