ASP.NET - Lifespan of Session Variable

[Sivangari]

In my application i have session.When i close the browser without signing out or when i restart my IIS .My session gets null or exchanged.

Can anybody help me out..

Hi Sivangari,

A Session has a limited lifespan and is ended when, amongst other things, you close the browser, a page errors or a session times out.

If you are trying to store data across sessions then you will need to use something else like a database or xml file.

Hope this helps,

When you close your browser your Session ID cookie is removed.
Therefore, when the user comes back to your page later the Server determines that there is no Session Identifier cookie and creates a new Session for the user.

What do you mean by "exchanged" ?
