One session per tab in JSF 1.2

I am working on a JSF 1.2 application. Consider the following use case with a browser with 2 tabs:

  1. In the first tab I login with user 'TEST'.
  2. In the second tab I login with user 'TEST2'.
  3. When I return back to the first tab, the logged-in user is changed to 'TEST2'.

How can I restrict the login to the current tab instead of all tabs? In other words, how can I restrict the HTTP session to one tab instead of all tabs of the browser instance?

Try to use the Private Tab. This will do the trick.

The private tab does not hold cookies. So it's a new session cookie for each tab.

NEW:

Another approach is disabling the cookies for your browser.

  • The default JSF behavior is concatenating the JSESSIONID in the URL. So each tab will have a different JSESSIONID as a URL parameter.

Simply use 2 different browsers (like chrome and firefox)

If you're using FireFox install the MultiFox plugin
