Make appending jsessionid configurable so it's only added when user wants it to be added

Matt Raible added a comment - 31/May/07 2:44 PM Since the stripping of jsessionid from URLs is likely to be something you want for more than just menu links, I'm going to recommend users use the UrlRewriteFilter (now BSD licensed) to implement this feature. From http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/manual/3.0/guide.html (search for jsessionid): <outbound-rule> <name>Strip URL Session ID's</name> <note> Strip ;jsession=XXX from urls passed through response.encodeURL(). The characters ? and # are the only things we can use to find out where the jsessionid ends. The expression in 'from' below contains three capture groups, the last two being optional. 1, everything before ;jesessionid 2, everything after ;jesessionid=XXX starting with a ? (to get the query string) up to # 3, everything ;jesessionid=XXX and optionally ?XXX starting with a # (to get the target) eg, from index.jsp;jsessionid=sss?qqq to index.jsp?qqq from index.jsp;jsessionid=sss?qqq#ttt to index.jsp?qqq#ttt from index.jsp;jsessionid=asdasdasdsadsadasd#dfds - index.jsp#dfds from u.jsp;jsessionid=wert.hg - u.jsp from /;jsessionid=tyu - / </note> <condition name="user-agent">googlebot</condition> <from>^(. ?)(?:\;jsessionid= [^\?#] )?(? [^#] )?(#. )?$</from> <to>$1$2$3</to> </outbound-rule>
