I set some vars to $_SESSION and then go to browserB where I get session_id() = Y. If i try to set the session_id(X) in browserB, the session is destroyed and I cannot see the session from browserA or browserB. You can test the code in http://develsystems.com/sessionTest.php http://develsystems.com/sessionTest.phps And see the phpinfo in http://develsystems.com/phpinfo.php Reproduce code: --------------- <?php if ($_GET['SES']) { session_id($_GET['SES']); } session_start(); echo session_id(); if (isset($_GET['a'])) { $_SESSION['a'] = $_GET['a']; } echo '<pre>'; var_dump($_SESSION); Expected result: ---------------- It should open the session from browserA in browserB and not destroy it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=39748&edit=1
