Aditi:

I suspect your problem can be easily resolved if you follow these easy steps:

  * Please post emails in plain text when posting to the mailing lists;

  * Please post to the user's mailing list when you are asking for help.
    Developer's list should be used to send and discuss bug reports or
    enhancements.

  * I hope you recognize that you are performing an HTTP request, and as written,
    it does not carry any information necessary to identify HTTP session on the
    target server. If target server is a java servlet container, and I suspect
    it is, session id usually can be passed in as ";jsessionid=<id>". See
    documentation of your servlet container for details.
