You "bounced" the output? Well, I can tell you for sure that neither IE nor
curl will send any POST data lookning like that. Those may be of course still
be the *values* that were posted.

I guess 'session' just was sent empty and then this isn't any particularly
tricky POST:

        blah1=4&session=&blah2=V&blah3=1&blah4=this&blah5=that

You didn't really tell us what goes wrong so it's really not possible to even
guess what your problems are.
