Are you sure about the session storage? have you tried changing it?

On XP with cookie store happens, and get fixed when I change to pstore.

Since I don''t have Vista, I couldn''t test it.

(Also willb e useful know the ruby and rails version that you''re
using).

Let me explain this better:

Latest versions of Rails (1.2.3 and Edge) sport a cookie-based session
handling as default.

The combination of this fact with Firefox on windows shows problems.

On the other hand, webrick don''t show this issue because cookies are
handled in a different way.

To workaround this problem, until deeper investigation of it, I
suggest you switch for local/development to PStore based session (that
was the default on previous versions).

You need to uncomment and modify the config/environment.rb around lines 29-31:

config.action_controller.session_store = :PStore

Please note: that will work OK on development, but this will not under
production since multiple mongrel instances will have problems
accessing the session files (stored in tmp/sessions).

For production I suggest change to :active_record_storage as suggested
in environment.rb comments and perform the rake task needed to create
these tables on the DB.

Also, I''ll like some volunteers to try the new release candidate of
Mongrel (1.0.2) [1] and let us know [2] if worked for you under the
same situation.
