If a user has disabled session cookies your Wicket app will still work fine using URL rewriting.
If you stop the URL rewriting and give a message to people who have disabled cookies you will prevent a certain % of visitors from using your web app. I'm not sure what that % of people is but in the past some people have believed the mantra that 'enabling cookies' is security hole/privacy issue. I've never believed that mantra but there is quite possibly a % of the population that do and so disabled cookies. >-----Original Message----- >From: Ian Marshall [mailto:ianmarshall...@gmail.com] >Sent: Monday, 13 February 2012 7:13 AM >To: users@wicket.apache.org >Subject: Link URLs with JSessionID truncated > >Hello All, > >A user's first visit to my app's home page results in the URL > > http://[My domain]/main/PageHome;jsessionid=v_qqIGVQlKBbkNSOcHkAQw?0 > >Each org.apache.wicket.markup.html.link.Link on my home page has the URL of >the form > > http://[My >domain]/main/..;jsessionid=v_qqIGVQlKBbkNSOcHkAQw?0-1.ILinkListener- >lnkAbout > >(of length 102 characters for the particular link URL copied here).
