RE: How "force" Tomcat 5.5.4 to always use URL Rewriting

Hi Rob,

Thanks much.  Your reply made me realize that I was searching for "URL 
rewriting" when I guess I should have been looking for "turn off cookies"!  
Once I took that tack I also found the following:

I made the change and all is well!

Thanks again,
Al

I am tempted to do this for our production applications,
if only to simplify testing (presumably it will ensure
I can have different sessions in different browser tabs?)
(OK I could switch off cookies in the browser but that
would affect other things...) but also because it makes
support issues cookie-independent hence simpler.

But what is the rationale for Tomcat preferring to use
cookies?  is there a downside to avoiding them?

Set the cookies attribute for the given (server.xml)  node to 
"false."  This will force Tomcat to rely only on URL rewriting.
