      Description

      Browsers can be configured not to accepted cookies, typically for privacy reasons. By using URL re-writing, it should be possible to support ICEfaces on browsers with cookies disabled.

      By making use of HttpSession.getId() the JSESSIONID could be included as an ICEfaces bridge configuration parameter and used in subsequent Ajax requests, thereby associating them with the session.

      Note that this approach would only support "cookieless" mode in synchronous (non-push) applications. The ICEfaces bridge requires cookies to be enabled in the browser for any asynchronous (push) applications for intra-viewport communications related to asynchronous connection management. No alternative approaches that do not use cookies have been identified as of yet to replace this functionality.
