Hi Guillermo,

Unfortunately by default ApplinX disconnects the host session whenever the user navigates to a url outside of the ApplinX web application. This was done to avoid accidently leaving unused host sessions opened. As a workaround, you can either open the external site as a new tab/window, or enhance the logoff context code in the ApplinX web application to avoid disconnecting the session (by overriding the gx\_onLoad() in the logoff context and not calling the super.gx\_onLoad() when you do not want to disconnect the session).

I hope that helps,  
Idan
