url rewrite prob in tag

[Mitchell, Glen (Corporate Channel Development)]

I've posted this on Apache/Tomcat/Struts as unsure where appropriate
I have a jsp page hosted on Apache 1.3.xxx/Tomcat 4.1.xxx config

On the page I use the following struts tag
<html:img page="/images/xxxxx.gif" ....../>

On the initial hit of the site this produces
<img src="http://host_name/images/xxxxx.gif:jsessionid=some_id_value"; .....>

The browser does not load this at all.

On hitting Refresh on the browser the following is produced
<img src="http://host_name/images/xxxxx.gif"; .....>

.i.e no jsessionid

The browser can then load the image correctly.

If I turn cookies off then the images are never loaded.

Does anyone know why this is ?. 

I assume it is a problem with the handling off URL rewriting but
don't know he fix.

Is it Apache or Tomcat that is the problem.

Maybe mod_rewrite in Apache ?

Thanks
GM
