Cookies are not part of the URL. So mod_rewrite does not manipulate them. If a cookie is part of a request, it will normally still be part of the request after mod_rewrite has manipulated the URL. > Ive been told (and tested) that Apache2 mod_rewrite does indeed manage this > situation. You can use mod_rewrite to do all kinds of nifty things. You have to realise however that mod_rewrite's purpose is to manimpulate URLs. It can set cookies as a sideeffect. If your cookie "does not get through" it is most likely not being sent to the server by the browser in the first place. Check this first. > Can anybody else confirm that this issue exists with Apache 1.3 and > mod_rewrite.. and why? You have formaluted your problem in a way that it is not possible for anyone to confirm (or deny) that this is an issue. Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b.
