clarification: url rewriting rules are often placed in .htaccess files (especially when those rules are specific to a domain or that domain is on a shared server - which they often are). you can also put rules in httpd.conf among other places. I second Gomez' recommendation on Helicon product - we've used it before with great success. _____

For Apache, you can use mod_rewrite which will take your ses url and parse it according to whatever rules you define. It works nicely as long as you are comfortable with the fact that the target non-ses url is written back into the address bar. We use a java application called url_rewrite that cloaks the target url entirely and you can create all sorts of regex patterns to convert to whatever destination you wish, and it is completely transparent to the user. It is really slick and works quite well. On 8/16/07, Marlon Moyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: .htaccess is an Apache thing.... I've not had a lot of good luck with URL rewriting on IIS. There are a couple of filters out there that can do it, but it seems most say they're not for production.
