If you have a parent window that opens a child window using JavaScript, is
the Session state between the two windows separate or shared?

Thanks in advance.

As long a it's the same process (instance on the processes list in your
Task Manager) you're sharing the sessions.

This means that if you're in IE and you're pressing Ctrl+n, you get a
new windows within the same process, no extra iexplore.exe.

When you doubleclick a shortcut or the .exe itself, you get a new window
with a seperate process.

The browsers Mozilla, FireFox and Opera are, as far as I'm concerned
they can only run one instance (process).
