Bl0ndie, it's not a matter of cookies really, it's a matter of the internal server issuing a redirect, but instead of doing it server-side with a 301 or 302 that I can catch and handle it's doing it in javascript, which I have to replace in the page response with the host behind which I'm reverse-proxying and then subsequently manage to send the request to the proper internal server, which will at the very least be a different pool member than the initial server, or (and this seems simpler to me) a totally separate pool.

 

 

The easiest way for me to do this would be to be able to issue pool commands in the stream_matched event, where I have the data I need, but that just isn't an option. It'd be a GREAT idea for an enhancement, though - load balancing based on page content. S'very sexy.
