question about PHPSESSID

Hi.
How should I configure Apache2.2 with php5 so that PHPSESSID would be sent
as a cookie ? Now I'm not getting any messages even if I set IE to ask
about incoming cookies...

So what is the default way of sending PHPSESSID if not as a cookie?

What is the best way to send PHPSESSID?

thanks,

Leszek

Session ID's can be sent as a cookie or in the url. Cookies are the
default as well as generally preferred method.

There are some settings in your php.ini file which control this
behavior: session.use_coo kies, and session.use_onl y_cookies. They are
explained here:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php

Hope this helps!

Hi, When I initially start my browser (any of 'm) and point it to my PHP script the $PHPSESSID is always blank. On all subsequent hits or after a refresh the value for $PHPSESSID is fine... why do I have to complete a php file before the $PHPSESSID is set? I tried to do session_start() before anything still blank, what did I miss? (Aix 4.3.3, php 4.2.1,Apache 1.13.26)

Hi, I don't know how php process its session. I just noticed that for the first time a web site is loaded php will insert a PHPSESSID through out the page: it attach this id to links, insert hidden field into form, and even attach the id onto form button if the button is an image. Here are samples what it did: <a href="http://link?PHPSESSID=e2b49283217665659a856cd939f10881>

Dear Gurus Is it correct that you do not have to pass the PHPSESSID in the header in order to keep a session going. What are the advantages/disadvantages of having the PHPSESSID in the header e..g. http://www.myurl.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=...... Thank you

Googlebot has been picking up numerous PHPSESSID name/value pairs in URIs at my website, and this causes duplicate hits and wasted bandwidth. I've since prevented PHPSESSID generation in my PHP script if Googlebot makes the request; like so: if(preg_match("/googlebot/i", $_SERVER) != 1) //session code here ....but this doesn't stop the PHPSESSID requests from Googlebot because they're already stored in its database, and it continues...

Greetings, I want users to select the duration time of their sessions. I'm able to do it by setting the PHPSESSID cookie duration. Is this reliable, or is it not recommended for some reason? This is the test : open browser, close browser, reopen browser if( ! $_COOKIE) // opened browser first time - no session
