I have a php app that is in the final stages of testing and has been
tested by over 30 separate users.
One of the testers is having an intermittent problem which seems to be
caused by a session variable not being read properly in about 1 in 3
requests even though the variable is getting set correctly in the
session temp file. It only happens after a form has been submitted
(using POST or GET doesn't seem to make a difference).
This bug only occurs when using IE6 (XP SP2) on this particular
machine, it does not occur when using Netscape7.1 on the same machine.
It occurs when testing against the main server Linux/Apache
1.3.29/PHP4.2.3 and against my dev machine Win2k/Apache 2/PHP4.3.4
None of the other testers seemed to experience the same problem.
Has anybody seen anything similar or know of any possible causes?
