when i close the webbrowser editor window, it doesn't really close the browser, which is a problem becouse my session infomation still exists, so when i open browser again to the same url ,it like i never dissconnected, which creates problems for me in testsing.

also trying to specify another browser (external one) doesn't really effect hyper linking in java editor

Yes, session info is not per Browser instance, but is shared, and one effect of this is what you're seeing.  The only way for you to currently make your tests work is to invoke Browser.clearSessions() between your tests.  There is an existing request for per-instance session info.
