if you are just trying to delete every row inserted after it was inserted then....

create or replace trigger deleteSession AFTER INSERT on ccsds_www_session
begin

   delete from ccsds_www_session;
end;
/

You don't need to do this in a ROW trigger... This will delete only records stored by the current session -- never anyone elses (since they always delete them as well with this trigger and you could not see others rows until they commit but by then its been deleted)...
