As far as I know, the browser propagates the session cookies to the connections opened by the applets on the page. Since browsers (or Java Plug-ins) do not know about HttpClient, HttpClient remains ignorant about cookies associated with the applet's web page. We are in discussions with Sun to extend the Java Plug-in specification... no we're not, just kidding :-) > I had to > provide a dirty workaround. I retrieve the cookies using > HttpUrlConnection and then set them explicity on my HttpClient. That isn't dirty. It's the same thing we would have to do in HttpClient to get to those cookies. cheers, Roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
