hi
How shall i manage session with ajax. Will the session id be sent automatically to the server with each request? If so is it sent as a cookie or url encoding?

Session management should work just the same with Ajax requests as it does for "normal" Web requests. The browser still sends cookies along with the Ajax request, so you should have no trouble tracking application using sessions on the server side.

I wrote a little thing on my blog a few weeks back that talks about session with certain types of Ajax applications.
