Not able to access session in Httpmodule for static resources like css /js/ image files

Question

I have created a HTTPModule. Session information is retrieved using PreRequestHandlerExecute. It is working well for aspx pages. But while loading css/js or any image files, Session is null.

I have gone through the link ASP.NET CSS file not loaded when adding HttpModule to web.config

But could not get the implementation.

Anyone has any idea about this?

I think you'll find that your static files are being handled by the StaticFileHandler and as such wouldn't fire off session events as the session won't be being activated for efficiency purposes.

You could configure IIS to pass static files through a different handler (the PageHandler for example) but really you'd need to know if that was required first. You haven't described why you want sessions to be available for static files.
