Session bug

[Lasse Edsvik]

Hello

I have a problem with running classic asp on a windows 2003 server. For some
reason it doesnt remove the sessions. I reload page and it removes some,
reload again and it removes a few more, very odd...

Any ideas? :S im clueless


For each key In Session.Contents()

If instr(key, "Question") >0 Then
Session.Contents.Remove(key)
Response.Write(key & ":" & Session(key) & "<br>")
End If
Next

When you remove a session variable, the position changes and
"For each key In" will skip those positions and:

try and see what happens when you repeatedly press F5 on this asp file:

<%
Session("one") = 1
Session("two") = 2
Session("three") = 3
Session("Zone") = 1
Session("Ztwo") = 2
Session("Zthree") = 3

For Each Item in Session.Contents
Response.Write Item & "=" & Session.Contents(Item) & "<BR>"
Next

Response.Write "<hr>"

For Each Item in Session.Contents
Session.Contents.Remove(Item)
Response.Write Item & "=" & Session.Contents(Item) & "<BR>"
Next
%>

So better do this:

<%
Session("one") = 1
Session("two") = 2
Session("three") = 3
Session("Zone") = 1
Session("Ztwo") = 2
Session("Zthree") = 3

For Each Item in Session.Contents
Response.Write Item & "=" & Session.Contents(Item) & "<BR>"
Next

Response.Write "<hr>"

Session.Contents.RemoveAll()
For Each Item in Session.Contents
Response.Write Item & "=" & Session.Contents(Item) & "<BR>"
Next
%>

If you want to "remove the sessions", why not use Session.Abandon()?
