Thanks, Tim.  But that wasn't the problem.  I've figured out what's
happening.  But I'm even more confused about how to move forward knowing
that now.

I've got a relatively simple situation.  I have three pages that I am
mapping to clean URLs in httpd mod_rewrite.

/cart = /order/jsp/guest/cart.jsp
/locateaccount = /order/jsp/guest/locateaccount.jsp
/checkout = /order/jsp/guest/checkout.jsp

I looked at my firefox cookies, and I have a cookie for /order. It makes
sense that /order would be the cookie that's sent back from TC, since
that's the URL that TC sees.  It's obvious to me now that when Firefox
requests the page "/locateaccount" it has no cookie to send for
"/locateaccount", since the cookie it should be sending is labeled
"/order", and firefox has no knowledge of the /order prefix

OK, it's clear what's happening.  But am I just out of luck? My client has
requested clean URLs.  But this has been nothing but a headache from the
start.

Am I missing something really obvious?

Maybe. Unless I am mistaken, in mod_rewrite (or mod_proxy), there are directives to rewrite cookie paths too, in the response coming from Tomcat and before they get forwarded back to the browser.
