You may consider moving the session id to the beginning of the path instead of keeping it in the query. If you have the ID in the query you have to take good care that you do not lose it. All links in the HTML you create must contain it. All static HTML pages must be scanned and all URLs changed ... It realy is a big hastle and it will decrease your server's performance. IMHO it's more efficient to use URLs like this: http://localhost/sess_id=000aaaa2114452221149988ac01/cgi- bin/myrequest.pl That way if you use relative links you do not have to care about the session ID. See http://jenda.krynicky.cz/C/SessionID.txt. The document describes a IIS filter, but the idea is valid for Apache as well and should not be hard to implement.
