Servlet 3.0 allows you to specify the means of maintaining a session.

I guess you are not using it, so see this question. I favour the 2nd answer more than the rewrite.

If you remove JSESSIONID from your ajax call, your servlet container won't identify your application and the resources stored in the session, (which is a side-effect, depending on your requirement).

E.g. retrieving a list of protected resources (that requires authorization). If the user had logged in (and user info is logged in a session), and Ajax doesn't pass the JSESSIONID, there's no way to verify user who logged in (as there is no application session). So, no protected resources is retrieved.

Just a 2cent thought.

If cookies are enabled, the browser will identify the jsessionid via the cookie value. – Steven Benitez Dec 04 '10 at 04:28

@Elite: Cookies are still sent with Ajax requests. – Steven Benitez Dec 05 '10 at 16:54
