I see. This is interesting, I have never tried to do this, and have
always relied on cookies for session handling.

Your point on mobile browsers that don't support cookies is well
taken. However, things should not get mixed up in Orbeon Forms if you
open multiple forms (even the same form multiple times) in different
iframes, or different windows/tabs of the same browser. We have paid
especially attention this (and if it happens, it is a bug!).

Like you said in a latter message, you can't, since the value here is
not the URL. We would need to provide some facility for this. What are
you changing in the URL? Are you adding a jsessionid request
parameter?
