if client sends session id in http header, persist. seems simple enough, no?

    That should be relatively easy. Here's an example from another post. For details on findstr, you can check the wiki page (Click here) 

     
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    persist uie [findstr [HTTP::query] "user=" 5 "&"]  
 }

    For a URL of http://example.com/path/to/object.type?param1=value1&param2=value2, HTTP::uri would return "/path/to/object.type?param1=value1&param2=value2", HTTP::path would return "/path/to/object.type" and HTTP::query would return "param1=value1&param2=value2"
