What is the proper/best way to go about this then, since I will be facing a similar situation in the near future? (Shopping cart bean, customer bean saved in the session.) Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: George Sexton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2006 12:17 PM To: 'Tomcat Users List'; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Session Expires At Every Request (Tomcat5.0.28/Firefox) You do realize that sessions don't carry over between SSL and non-SSL request don't you? You can't have a session ID that carries over from a non-ssl session to an SSL session because that session ID is compromised (it has been exposed) as plain text. As an aside, I looked at your form. You should really use HttpServletRequest.getLocale() to pick up your user's locale and then provide date formatting for the user locale.
