Description
Here are a couple of discussions on the topic:
https://myfaces.apache.org/orchestra/myfaces-orchestra-core/multiwindow.html
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/368653/how-to-differ-sessions-in-browser-tabs
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4970004/support-multiple-browser-tab-session-j2ee-web-application
Currently in wicket if user wants to safely use two browser windows in the same application, they must login from different browsers (or use some suitable browser-specific private browsing mode).
We would like to add functionality into wicket to allow:
- automatic detection of new browser tab
- configuration option which would keep independent wicketsession for each browser tab (initially clone from wicketsession of window that opened new tab)
- possible solution: pagemap and wicketsession could go hand in hand, each pagemap with its own wicketsession to keep them insulated
We'll start working on this immediately, all suggestions welcome.
