[Jetty-support] FormAuthenticator and getting session vars in an IFRAME

[Eric H. <tri...@ya...>]

I'm trying to load up a form based login page in an
IFRAME and am having some problems with the redirect
url.

I store the redirect url on the jsp page in the
session

session.setAttribute("org.mortbay.jetty.URI",
"/newurl");

but when I submit the form to "j_security_check" the
FormAuthenticator can't get a handle on the session
and this attribute. It thinks that no session exists
in the request.  Doing a
request.isRequestedSessionIdValid() returns false all
of the time.

Trying to open this login form in a new window,
outside of an IFRAME and the FormAuthenticator finds
the session no problem.

Is this some kind of bug? Or a browser issue? I'm
using IE 6.0.
