Can we step back again and have you explain what you're trying to
achieve, at a higher level than just this single session value? For
instance, when you say "otherj2eeAppSession", do you actually mean
session.getId() from the other app? Is your intent that you need the
other application's sessionid so that you can redirect users back to
that app later and maintain their original session? Is
"otherj2eeAppSession" actually the sessionid of some THIRD j2ee app
that you have to be able connect to? If you can explain one level up
what it is you're attempting to do, we might be able to help more than
than digging around in the details which might not be headed in the
direction you think it is in the first place.

The trouble is, I have no control over this. The session ID gets
passed as it gets passed, nothing I can do about it I don't think
because it's not my app. I just give it the link, and it decides
how the session ID is passed. That being the case, looks like the
answer is I'm out of luck, right?
Thanks,

I don't see it in the URL, so I'm guessing it must come over as a
form variable. If so, using my last e-mail as an example j2ee
equivalent of what I want to do, i.e.:
String sessionKey = (String)
session.getAttribute("otherj2eeAppSession");
should I be able to get it simply by doing:
String sessionKey = (String)
this.request().formValueForKey("otherj2eeAppSession");
1) If you're calling session.getAttribute("otherj2eeAppSession") in
your j2ee app to get this value, there's no way to get this value
from your WO app. A session attribute is a key-value pair _inside_
of an HttpSession, which you don't have (and cannot get without
literally serializing the session and sending it over in some
custom way).
2) The only thing you can possibly get is one of:
2a) a form parameter that you manually pass to your DA as a query
string parameter
2b) a form parameter that you manually pass to your DA via a post
parameter
2c) a cookie value provided both of your apps are on the same host
and the cookie is configured at the root
What you most likely want to do is call your DA and manually pass
the session ID as a query parameter, for instance:
http://yourhost.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/YourApp.woa/wa/yourDirectAction?otherj2eeAppSession=xyz
at which point, yes you could call
request().stringFormValueForKey("otherj2eeAppSession") and get the
value.
