One with the expired ID and another with the new ID. A third ID is appearing too, but i dont know why. Im using session_name() before calling session_start() on all parts of the code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-11 12:11:47] thiago@softexpert.com Try this steps: 1 - Clear the session_save_path dir. 2 - Create a session with expires=0 3 - Destroy this session 4 - Close the browser (I.E) 5 - Open the browser and access the same page where the session was created 6 - Look at the session_save_path dir. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17704&edit=1
