Session tracked via URL in ASP.NET

Hello,

I have my asp.net web application to track session id across pages using the url, and not cookies, ie in the web.config file:
<sessionState ..... cookieless="true" ........ />

however each link in the page does not embed the id in the url like it is supposed to :

<a href="http://mywebserver/(rqe4ptb333ojxz3kh1t3xqr3)/mypage.aspx"> my link </a>

and so each page i travel to, a new session id is created in the url and the information associated with the previous page's session id is lost.

can anybody tell me what else i need to do to make this work?

thank you,

for some reason the .net framework will not insert the session id before rendering the HTML if your HREF uses a "/" to denote that the path is relative to the root

this will work:
href="http://myserver/home.aspx"

as will this:
href="home.aspx"

but this won't:
href="/home.aspx"
