I'm sorry for the typo.  As stated, we already have working agents for the RWI, but
thank you anyways.

That depends on what you call a "module."  If, for example, your interpreter is
parsing a series of modules (say, "subroutines") as a single unit, then yes, it
shouldn't matter.  However, a server redirect closes the connection and forwards the
client to an independent URL (sometimes a relative URL).  As I understand it, form
data and cookie values must be re-sent by the client (not the redirecting server) to
the new location.  Typically, this is performed by our web browsers transparently.
Unfortunately, agents aren't always perfect in doing this.

If we conclude that redirects are causing my agents to drop (toss?) their cookies,
then I can take this information to Macromedia and the respective development
community.
