J2EE sessions are stored either as a parameter in the URL or as a cookie. In this case it sounds like it's in a cookie which on IE for Windows will automatically be sent back when using the standard URL classes. For HttpClient and most other systems you have to manually send the cookie yourself. You can retrieve it using javascript with document.cookie and then pass it in to the applet as a parameter which can then be passed through to HttpClient. I believe Matt Drance from Apple has polished up these instructions for me and posted them as a FAQ somewhere on Apple's site so it's probably worth doing a bit of a dig around there for more info. If you can't find it and need more help I can do up some example code for you. > Kamal El Bedraoui Regards, Adrian Sutton. ---------------------------------------------- Intencha "tomorrow's technology today" Ph: 38478913 0422236329 Suite 8/29 Oatland Crescent Holland Park West 4121 Australia QLD www.intencha.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
