It exports an environment variable, see the SessionEnv directive for details.
Re: How do I get hold of session information?
Thank you. I will take a look at mod_session. Will my module be able to check if mod_session is "enabled" (sorry, I don't know the Apache terminology) and, if it is, talk to it and ask it for what it has stored in its session?

Re: How do I get hold of session information?
In a Java servlet I may do something like this to get hold of the session on the web server: public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws java.io.IOException { HttpSession session = request.getSession(true); Cart cart = (Cart)session.getAttribute("cart"); ... and I can get hold of the session id etc. I assume that if I were to make a request to a web site hosted on Apache then the capability exists for one of the server side web pages to create a session and store some piece of data in it. What I want to do in my module is get hold of that session (if it exists) and read data from it.

How do I get hold of session information?
Hello, I have a module that does little more than take the information in the http request and forward it to another web site. I can get information from the query string easily enough, but is there any way I can get information about the session, and data stored in it? Thanks, Paul
