Re: [PLUG] [off-topic] Question about Session Support Mechanisims

["W.Chris Shank" <chris.shank@acetechgroup.com>]

Cookieless sessions generally require URL rewriting - where the app  
server appends something like:  
&SESSION_ID=al;dfjalsdjkflasjdlfjasld;jfl;asjdfljasdlfjla;sdjflajsdl;fja 
lsdjf to every hyperlink within the site's domain. This ussally doesn't  
require any extra effort for the developer - since the app server does  
this when rendering links, based on the session configuration and if  
the client accepts cookies.
