The user/UA has to identify itself. There are mainly 3 possibilities:
1. Cookie (preferred).
2. POST variable
3. GET variable

When using GET variables, HTTPS is a must.

This is one of the things PHP will do automagically for you. Standard it will
try to set a cookie, unless you tell it otherwise. When using a cookie, no
url-rewriting is necessary.
Check the manual: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php
