I use a HttpSession object.
HttpSession object = null;
When user access to site, i use:
object = request.getSession();
later i use:
boolean n = object.isNew();
if n = true, then user is not using cookies.
I suppose that tomcat is using Session Cookies and not re-writting politic..
because, tomcat keep session with user using cookies, so.. if session is new mean that user is new for tomcat, because it can't send cookie.
regards..

The API for the HttpServletResponse.encodeURL() method states that "the implementation of this method includes the logic to determine whether the session ID needs to be encoded in the URL".
How does Tomcat know whether or not a browser supports cookies, or session tracking is turned off?
Is it simply a case of looking for the presence of a "Cookie:" header in the request, and assuming that cookies are enabled if the header is found?
And if that is the case, would I be correct in assuming that browsers (when permitted by their users) will set "Cookie:" headers in their requests even if they do NOT actually have any (previously set) cookies to send back to the server?
I'm just guessing, of course - and I know I should not generalise about browsers: I'm thinking of IE, Mozilla/Firefox and Opera.
