[HtmlUnit] no session id in iframe

[<th...@cy...>]

Hi, 

I got a problem concerning an iframe within our application. In that
iframe, we call a servlet which must be part of the current session, so
it needs to have access to the same session id. Unfortunately it doesn't
know anything about the session id when accessed with HtmlUnit. It works
fine, when accessed with the browser. 
First I assumed, that its a cookie problem, so I got me the new
commons-httpclient (2.0 Beta2), but that did not fix it. So I guess,
that its more a problem within HtmlUnit. 
If I'm wrong, i'd gladly take any advice to resolve this problem ;) 

I'm using HtmlUnit 1.2.2


Thanks in advance and best regards

Is the session id being store in a cookie or in the url?  HtmlUnit 
doesn't actually touch the cookies - that's entirely handled by 
commons-httpclient.  Are you sending the request back up to a different 
server than the one that issued the cookie?  Can you look at the traffic 
with a sniffer to see if the cookies are being sent back to the server?
