You do actually have to go through the pains of rewriting all of your URLs in links and things for this to work. If you have a link in a page like this: <a href="/loseMySession.do">Lose it!</a> you will lose the session, since there is no call to rewrite the URL.
I believe that the Struts tags will rewrite the URLs as part of their normal processing, so they might be very helpful. But you have to use them consistently! One bad URL in the whole site/app will drop the session if the user clicks on it. -Max ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Cameron" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2003 6:39 PM Subject: RE: URL Rewriting This is what I would have expected, but isnt our experience and I am not sure why.
