I need some help. I don’t even know what to search for… Typing www or [http://www](http://www) sets session “xyz” in Firefox, but not typing them sets a different session “abc” in Firefox.

- Is there a way to set the same session no matter what the user types in?

Basically, I think Firefox doesn’t understand that http://www.—.com is same as —.com

**Edit:** Well, I fixed this problem, but I’d still like to know if it’s possible with the htaccess file.

Thanks. 🙂
