I just want to show one of my friend that the browser sends the unique id back to the server .  That's the reason I was printing the request header keys from the browser . ( It wil be returned to the server if Server had set that using request.getSession() method before ) .  But  printing those request parameters does not show such key ??? How can I prove that  ??   Suhas             ----- Original Message ----- From: Jon.Ridgway To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2001 9:45 AM Subject: RE: question in user state management using Session Hi Suhas,   You might try something like this:   HttpSession session = request.getSession();   If (session != null) {    id = session.getId(); }   Hope this helps,   Jon.     -----Original Message----- From: suhas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 03 July 2000 12:28 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: question in user state management using Session   Hi I want to know the http request header key  -   I'm writing request.getSession(true)  in the jsp .  This method in turn might be settting the browser header key .( dunno exactly name of that key)  .But I think that header key is "set-cookie = 12313 " ( this can be the unique  session id that server has to set for identifying a user) . So whenever server receives this key in the http request , server identifies the user , if the key is present in the request    Server checks the hashtable stored in the server  and retrieves the  information for that   In another jsp page I tried to print all the request header keys , But there wasn't any such key found . ?   Can u tell how to check for that key
