Hi Steve,
I just got done reading this in Jason Hunter and William Crawford's Java
servlet programming book(publised by O'Rielly). There is a good blurb about
the advantages and disadvantages of URL re-writing on pages 200 and 201(if
you have this book). If you don't have the book, the gist is that hidden
form fields and URL re-writing have almost the same advantages and
disadvantages in terms of over all flexibily; however URL-rewriting could
get tedious.
The author claims that you may need some server specific support if u want
to custom URL-rewriting to work for static pages as well. I am not sure what
the server specific support is.
Would you share with me what specific session techniques are not available
in the API at this time?
Thanks
Neelesh

Subject: Holding Sessions
Hi All
I am working on a servlet development and so far the platform has not
been decided on. Because of this the API that we will use is unknown.
The question is:
So development can start and be transported to any servlet engine would
it be the most flexible to do URL rewriting to maintain the session. The
idea being that some of the lateset session techniques are not available
in the early API and because of this we will have to use the most common
technique available.
Thanks
Steve
