    server and gather click streams. Unlike mod_usertrack it does not use a
    cookie. Instead the session identifier is transferred as the first part
    on an URI.

    Furthermore, in conjunction with a load balancer it can be used to
    direct all requests belonging to a session to the same server.

DESCRIPTION
    "Apache2::ClickPath" adds a PerlTransHandler and an output filter to
    Apache's request cycle. The transhandler inspects the requested URI to
    decide if an existing session is used or a new one has to be created.

  The Translation Handler
    If the requested URI starts with a slash followed by the session prefix
    (see "ClickPathSessionPrefix" below) the rest of the URI up to the next
    slash is treated as session identifier. If for example the requested URI
    is "/-S:s9NNNd:doBAYNNNiaNQOtNNNNNM/index.html" then assuming
    "ClickPathSessionPrefix" is set to "-S:" the session identifier would be
    "s9NNNd:doBAYNNNiaNQOtNNNNNM".

    Starting with version 1.8 a checksum is included in the session ID.

=head2 The Translation Handler

If the requested URI starts with a slash followed by the session prefix
(see L</"B<ClickPathSessionPrefix>"> below) the rest of the URI up to the next
slash is treated as session identifier. If for example the requested URI
is C</-S:s9NNNd:doBAYNNNiaNQOtNNNNNM/index.html> then assuming
C<ClickPathSessionPrefix> is set to C<-S:> the session identifier would be
C<s9NNNd:doBAYNNNiaNQOtNNNNNM>.
