    Description

      Sometimes we get a login dialog from Magnolia when we want to add an internal link within the FCK editor.

      I will describe the behaviour as follows:
      We had logged in the Magnolia backend with "superuser" and opened a CMS template to change some content. In the FCK editor we used the link-function via the button "Insert a link".
      Then we got as normal the dialog "Link – web page dialog" and we pushed the button "Server durchsuchen" or "Browse server".
      Then in some cases we didn't got the Repository browser as expected. Rather we saw in the popped up window the login form of Magnolia CMS. And we have to login to get the access to the repository.

      access.log extract:
      127.0.0.1 - - [11/Nov/2008:11:55:15 +0100] "GET /author/.magnolia/pages/repositoryBrowser.html?contextPath=/author HTTP/1.1" 401 1920

      Additionally a deeper logging on Tomcat showed that no http session cookie was sent at this request from the browser, but the session cookie was existing before and after the repeated login form.

      The problem was happen with the IE6 or IE7 until now. Unfortunately we cannot reproduce the behaviour.

      But some of our customers indicated us about this.
