Hi,

I've built a whole site in .jsp where I use sessions everywhere, but the day after the 
opening  I noticed that the log file was filled with NullPointerExceptions, this came 
from the fact that many visitors don't allow cookies, and since Jsp's doesn't  support 
session tracking by Url-rewriting the getSession call returned null and when accessing 
the session object  the NullPointerException was thrown and the processing stopped, 
wich means that the visitor didn't see anything.

I got around this by putting try/catch clauses on every page and making the catch set 
the variables to default values, but this is not really a good solution since that 
makes the extra functionallity the sessions added worthless and also using try/catch 
clauses in .jsp's isn't really what the html designers prefer.

is there a better solution or is this the way it's supposed to be ?
