Kishore,
Are you sure about that? What about url-encoding of a session id?
Just a thought ...

you can also use the isNew() method of the HttpSession object to see if the
Cookies are disabled on the client.
isNew() returns true if the client does not yet know about the session or if
the client chooses not to join the session. For example, if the server used
only cookie-based sessions, and the client had disabled the use of cookies,
then a session would be new on each request

Subject: Re: cookie
Can you test the return value from: response.addCookie( id); ?
If not, the only way to check if cookies are supported by the user's
browser:
attempt to read the cookie immediately after writing it !!!
If that fails, then display a warning page with instructions on how to
enable cookies....based on the browser-type.
Cookies are powerful, but very, very touchy !
