I'm starting a session with session_start. That works fine. I can see
the $_SESSION variables from other php pages. However, when I go to an
external website and call one of the php pages from a form
(method=post), session_start() starts a new session and kills the old
one. Can someone tell me why this happens and how to prevent it from
happening. My php pages are being called from an external web site. I
need to get the session created in login.php to be valid later in
"upload.php ", eg.
Is there some problem with forms and POST causing new sessions to
start?
here is my phpinfo: http://68.115.203.26/phpinfo.php
thanks,
Roger 3  2372

Just a crazy idea... Check the external site HTML source and look for a
hidden form variable called PHPSESSID. You have an option called
session.use_onl y_cookies set to Off so PHP may be confused by the
aforementioned form field if the remote field uses url_rewriter.ta gs to
rewrite forms.

No, that didn't make any difference. Use_only_cookie s is now on.

Ok, I found it. It was zone-alarm. I had "cookie control" set to
medium:
"Blocks cookies from tracking sites"
"Allows cookies for personalized services"
If I turn cookie control off in zone-alarm ("Allows all cookies") then
it works.
It sounds to me that 'medium' ought to work. Anyone know why it
doesn't? Also, I have cookies enabled in the browser (firefox). This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi
I'm new to PHP and I'm trying to create a Login Form. Once the user has
logged in then he shouldn't have to log in again. The trouble is I'm getting
a new session ID between every page and so it doesn't recognise the user.
I've used Session_Start() which I thought was meant to maintain the session
variables between pages but it doesn't do work.
Any ideas or FAQ's?

Dear experts,
I have a problem with session_start() and JavaScript. In IE6 (but not
Mozilla) the first time the page below loads the JavaScript doesn't
work (clicking on the graphic should write 'click' in the form entry
box). After you hit refresh it works fine. IE doesn't report any error
(reporting is turned on). It also works fine if I remove the
"session_start()". Is this an IE bug or am I doing something wrong?
Is there a fix or...

I set up a server on an AMD 650 machine running gentoo linux.
I installed Apachie 2, MySQL 4.1 and PHP 4.3.11
I use another computer on my local net (192.168.0.x) to access the server as a client.
MySQL works perfectly. I have created and queried databases with no problem.
Apachie 2 appears to work with no problem. I can call up web pages in the expected maner.

Hi,
I'm a newbie. I was trying to figure out how to use the Session_start method? The reference books I'm reading say that a session STARTS when "session_start" is called. But ... in their sample code... I never see that explicitly called. Is it supposed to be called from the Global.asa file (still not sure what that is...)
Is "session_start" a server-side scripting thing? Or a client-side scripting thing?
I'd really appreciate a nice...

I'm running into an issue with session_start(). I see that you can't
run it twice, otherwise it causes an issue. That's fine, and makes
sense. I also saw some ideas on how to get around this if you need to
run it more than once, and I get those as well, but none are working
for me.
Here's a mockup of what I have:

info.php

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
