Prevent Firefox from restoring session cookies after restart -
firefox has feature restore session cookies after restart (either after crash or if user has set "restore session" option) , that's causing lot of problems (for example: firefox session cookies).
however sites, notably gmail, somehow don't have problem. after restores session firefox won't sign in gmail, you'll have enter user/pass again. (although, not quite sure if gmail uses session cookies @ all)
is there way server application "prevent" browser restoring session cookies? or there way know in restored session?
ok, answer own question...
according can firefox restore secure session after add-on installation? , page links http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.privacy_level there's firefox setting 'browser.sessionstore.privacy_level' determines ff session restores saves (can 0, 1 or 2 - see second link).
until ff4 default store/restore non-secure sessions (that's why gmail asks sign in again - using ssl/https), in ff4 default setting store sessions - secure sessions restored ff.
