Not a problem IC is a great structure saving me alot of programing time

I have Identified yet another loss of session ID when using Apache Mod 
RewriteRule with IC and have included the fix .

Under Menu Constructor (menu_editor.html)
When slecting the Menu to edit or hitting Load button the session is 
lost and returned to the
admin login screen basicly the same issue as before.

To fix :
Edit the file : /usr/local/interchange/lib/UI/pages/admin/menu_editor.html
Find the following part :
----------------------- SNIP ------------------------------
 
 
<span class=s3>[L]Menu name[/L]</span>
<select name=qmenu_name
                onChange="if(check_publish()) { this.form.submit() }"
                class=s3><option value="" 
class=s3>[L]--select--[/L]</option>[scratch qmenu_options]</select>
<INPUT TYPE=button NAME=submittor VALUE="[L]Load[/L]" 
onClick="if(check_publish()) { this.form.submit() }" class=s3>
</form>
[output name=""]
------------------------ SNIP --------------------------------

Change TO :

------------------------ SNIP --------------------------------
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<span class=s3>[L]Menu name[/L]</span>
<select name=qmenu_name
                onChange="if(check_publish()) { this.form.submit() }"
                class=s3><option value="" 
class=s3>[L]--select--[/L]</option>[scratch qmenu_options]</select>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_session_id  VALUE="[data session id]">
<INPUT TYPE=button NAME=submittor VALUE="[L]Load[/L]" 
onClick="if(check_publish()) { this.form.submit() }" class=s3>
</form>
[output name=""]
------------------------ SNIP ---------------------------------

That Fix's it.
