Get Current Session Value in JavaScript

Question

I have a scenario where I open my web application in a browser but in two separate tabs   In one tab I signed out from the application and as a result the all session values becomes null  While in the other tab I clicked on an anchor tag in the webapplication  In the anchor tag s jquery-on click event I have checked the session value  Here I am supposed to get the session as null since I logged out the application from the other tab   but I am getting session value as logged in user probably because no page refresh occurs    My idea is to check the session on jQuery and if the session is null make the application logout otherwise show a popup page    Here s my code for getting the session value      a  click function       var session var data     Session  UserName        if session  null         Show popup         else        Show loginpage             How can I get the current session value in jQuery

Another approach is in your chtml   lt input type  hidden  id  hdnSession  data-value   Request RequestContext HttpContext Session  someKey      gt     nbsp  and the script is  var sessionValue      hdnSession   data  value      or you may access directly by   jQuery document  ready function               var value     Request RequestContext HttpContext Session  someKey

i tested this method and it worked for me  hope its useful   assuming that you have a file named index php and when the user logs in  you store the username in a php session  ex    SESSION  username     you can do something like this in you index php file     lt script type  text javascript  gt    var userName     lt  php echo   SESSION  username     gt      dont forget to place the PHP code block inside the quotation   lt  script gt    now you can access the variable userId in another script block placed in the index php file  or even in a  js file linked to the index php  ex   in the index js file      document  ready function        alert userId           it could be very useful  since it enables us to use the username and other user data stoerd as cookies in ajax queries  for updating database tables and such   if you dont want to use a javascript variable to contain the info  you can use an input with  type  hidden    ex  in your index php file  write    lt  php echo   lt input type  hidden  id  username  value      SESSION  username       gt      gt    however  this way the user can see the hidden input if they ask the browser to show the source code of the page  in the source view  the hidden input is visible with its content  you may find that undesireble

would be a lot easier to use Razor code in your page   in my example  i needed to set a hidden field with a session variable       clearFormButton   click function        ResetForm            hiddenJobId   val  Session  jobid           that easy   remember  you need to preface the Session with a   sign for razor syntax

The session is a server side thing  you cannot access it using jQuery  You can write an Http handler  that will share the sessionid if any  and return the value from there using   ajax

The way i resolved was  i have written a function in controller and accessed it via ajax on jquery click event  First of all i want to thank  Stefano Altieri for giving me an idea of how to implement the above scenario you are absolutely right we cannot access current session value from clientside when the session expires   Also i would like to say that proper reading of question will help us to answer the question carefully
