Hi,

I need to be able to open another browser from within an already opened
browser with a completely new session (using the same session
variables). How can I do this? In essence, I want to allow a (super)
user to be logged in as another user but without closing his/her own
original session. I've tried everything but the new browser overwrites
the old session variables. I even tried 'regenerating' a new session ID
but the new ID replaces the old one! How can I have a new ID which does
not replace the old one? Is there a clean way to do this? Thanks!

Steve
