Yes but it doesn't happen magically.
An HttpSession object is kept on the server but the reference to the
session is passed between the browser and the servlet, generally using
a cookie.
When you do this:
HttpSession mysesh=request.getSession(true);
a session is created UNLESS one already exists.
Therefore it behaves exactly as you want it to.
Stroke of luck that eh?
