We have a requirement where support for different users in different tabs of a browser window. How can we achieve this in Spring 2.5? The application is based on Users, where users will have their own agents and articles. An internal user should be able to login to different user accounts in different tabs at same time and manipulate their data. Any help is much appreciated.
A browser’s cookie store does not distinguish between different windows or tabs when deciding what cookies to send. So a cookie based approach won’t help.
My suggestion for an alternative would be to have a hidden “userName” parameter that is passed back and forth as a URL query parameter for all requests from a given tab or window. You could finesse the setting of the parameter in browser requests by using some Javascript to add a hidden parameter to each of the HTML forms in the page just loaded. The parameter value would be snarffed from the query string of the current page URL. You’d just need to make sure that all pages included stuff in the header to load the JS and run it when the page load completed.
