Precisely,

However I need to get at these parameters inside a Filter in tomcat to
determine the action taken..  Whatever tomcat uses to parse this url (JK2
??) simply wipes this ;jsessionid=2345345 and I can't see it

So to reiterate,

Client ------------------- JK??---------------------------------------tomcat
Incoming nastyurl -> changed to nice params here -->do stuff
Outgoing nastyurl <- changed back to nasty params here <-

Any ideas?

Hi,
I think what he's saying is that he has request parameters AFTER path
parameters, and that Tomcat stops evaluating the URL after encountering
the special ; delimiter ;)
