Shift Reload konakart admin
« on: May 21, 2010, 04:59:03 AM »
Hi

I have noticed that if one clicks "Shift+Reload" on the konakartadmin webapp, then one receives the login screen again (although I signed in just before).

Is that a feature or a bug?

Thanks

Michael

That's the way it works.  When you refresh you get a whole new Admin App downloaded into your browser.  Session information is removed from the cookie cache for security.

Thanks very much for the quick feedback.

I don't fully understand how this relates to security, because if I do a shift+reload, then a request to the server
is done and in case the session has expired I should receive the login screen anyway.

Thanks

Michael

When the window is closed (either by a refresh or a browser close) we have to remove the session id from the browser cookie cache.
