Unfortunately I was wrong in some respects. Here's Grisha's response. John --- The cookie is set in the __init__ method of the session object, so saving the session and the cookie are not related. Also keep in mind that the cookie is set only once - when the session is new. After that there is no need for it, it's the client who has to send the cookie to the server every time, the server does not need to "return" it. So if your session persists over 100 HTTP requests, 1 will have a cookie header, and 99 will not.
