    preventing Session ID replay attack

    Hello,
    I am developing a Simple ASP Website with a login page. I want to
    know how can I change Session ID after login and also Close the current
    Session after User closes the Window or gets logged out of the Website. So
    that every time user logs in into the website, Session ID will be unique.

    Thank you.

    You cnnot, simply because changing the session.id would end the session per
    definition.
    and also Close the
    current Session after User closes the Window or gets logged out of the
    Website.
    Use session.abandon if you have to, or empty the
    session("login" ) value if so designed.

    .... however you cannot reliably trust the closing of window to be reported.
    It depends on the browser used, the closing of the computer, or if someone
    trips over the mains connection or internet connection.
    So that every time user logs in into the website, Session ID
    will be unique.
    The session.id is unique as delivered by the system, better than once in a
    lifetime at least.
