[JDEV] Re-using session - is it possible?

[Sebastian Paul Avarvarei]

Hello,

First, thanks to Peter and David for the help with digest/hash. Running ok now with <digest>.

I have a new question now: is it possible to use the same connection to the server from different applications? For example, a server side PHP script does the Jabber login and then a Java applet continues to use the same connection which was already open. If the applet would know the Jabber session ID, can it somehow talk with the server without doing a new login?

What I'm trying to do is to avoid asking the visitor to login twice: once on the site itself and once in the Jabber client (the site already has member login). 

Has anyone else done something like this?

Best regards,
Sebastian
