These examples work and a new IE window is opened, but if there is already an IE window open, the settings made in the new session are also reflected in the old session.

For example, when our URL is called, the page being called accepts the parameters and sets cookies in the browser. If I use either of the techniques below to call a new IE window with a different customer ID, the web page getting called will accept the new parameter and set the cookies correctly, but these same cookie values are also set on the other IE window(s).

The only way around this is to manually open a new IE window and manually login to our web page. Then we can have multiple IE windows open, each with their own cookie settings and each with their own unique customer information showing. We just can't accomplish this with either of the below techniques.

Thanks,

Jerry
