Thanks for your reply but thing is we are not using URL rewriting.We are
using cookies to maintain the session(default).
And we are using cookies for other things like remeber password.That thinh
is working fine in NETSCAPE.
Only problem comes when we try to transfer from http to https or vice versa.
I think other people are using it.Like in hotmail when a user login his data
is sent by https but after that it's transferred back to http.
So is it due to the combination of both NETSCAPE and TOMCAT?Becaz the same
thing is working in IE.
