Some recommendation I've found in my mailbox:
URL rewriting can be turned on quite easily - by setting
enable.urlrewriting=true
in the file
jws/properties/server/javawebserver/webpageservice/session.properties.
However, to use it, the encodeURL() method has to be called on _ALL_ urls
output by the servlet.
Regards,
Dmitry.
