Bug #18205 Updated: Session ID added to URL not HTML compliant

ID: 18205 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported By: hectorp@buckfoodsvc.com -Status: Open +Status: Won't fix Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Suse Linux 8 PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: Can you guarantee that making this change would not break any clients out there? I know what the standard says, and I know what the validators say, but I really don't care. I care a lot more about what works. The current mechanism works everywhere and as such the motivation to change it just because a validator says to is nonexistant.

Or not. Perhaps I'd like to go back to C. Sheesh. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-07 01:15:23] sniper@php.net Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions.

I just reported a bug in the way php transparently adds the session id to a link in a page a php program generates; I didn't ask a support question or _any_ question at all. Pay attention, junior. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-06 23:24:16] sniper@php.net Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions.

By the way, I'd have searched to see if it's been reported before, but the search function called me a "bad database hacker" when I attempted to view the next page. :-( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18205&edit=1
