I faced the same problem with Netscape 4.5 when I was not using the default
port for http and https. If you use the default port and don't specify the
port no in the url, it should work 'coz the session cookie is set based on
the domain name and port (in this case no port number). If you are using
weblogic, an alternative solution is to set the cookieDomain in the
weblogic.xml file.

Read the docs of your container about sessions. Resin can store session
information on disk and in a database, maybe that could be a workaround for
transferring session from HTTP -> HTTS?

Another idea (apart from Adrian's) would be to put all the data you need to
transfer in some structure (hashtable) in the application scope, and include
a unique key in the secure shopping form, so the new HTTPS session will
retrieve the old data from the application scope. You have to be very
carefull about security though.
