Look at the traffic going back and forth. Test it with GET or lynx. See if the cookie header is being sent. To elaborate a little on this thread: I find ethereal http://www.ethereal.com/ useful for debugging situations like this. Certain browsers (that I won't name) behave in quirky ways that GET or lynx won't emulate, so it's often worth running ethereal in the background whilst using your site with various browsers, then analysing TCP streams in ethereal to see exactly what's happening.

Re: How do I force a 'Save Window?'

Why not use the application/octet-stream MIME type as recommended in RFC 1521? Tom
Re: SSL - mod_gzip - mod_perl = mod_proxy error

You don't gain much, if anything, from compressing data sent through such devices, or from using other techniques such as stripping redundant whitespace from HTML. In my experience, most ISDN connections don't use link level compression - techniques such as mod_gzip have some merit in this case. Tom

If possible please give the steps included in this Is Apache::DBI what you need? If not, why? It is in fact not about controlling traffic, its about reusing database connections to sve the time needed for a connect There was a discussion of database pooling and reusing DBI connections on Perl Monks today: http://perlmonksorg/indexpl?node_id=148233 Tom
