Bug #15978: Losing fields values after opening a new window

From: crikou@xsilence.net Operating system: WIN 2K PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: Session related Bug description: Losing fields values after opening a new window Really strange...I believe it is a session problem (session_cache_limiter) Here is the thing: I'm using PHP4 sessions, and so have set the session_cache_limiter to 'private, must revalidate', to keep history. I have a page A.PHP with form. This page calls B.php. After sending datas from a.php to b.php and then hit the back button (to go back to a.PHP), I found my formfields with values always here. OK. Everything works fine. But when I send datas from a.php to b.php ,and then, on b.php page, I open a new window (with <A TARGET="_blank", or _new, or JS window.open, or right-click open in a new window), and try to go back to a.php again, then my fields are empty!!!! Hu! You can try on www.php.net, the problem is there too! -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15978&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15978&r=submittedtwice
