With recent discussions about session management, I recalled long time ago reading about URI rewriting for when the client doesn't handle cookies properly, and found a useful article about it
http://access1.sun.com/techarticles/sessions.iws.html "URL rewriting is the ability to use sessions and session information if cookies have been disallowed or are not available on the client. URL rewriting can also be useful when, for example, proxy or firewall servers change or disallow cookies. Cookies are small bits of data stored by the client; for example by a Web browser. " OK, this is for sun's iplanet, but the information might still be relevant to tomcat.
