As a work around, if I use my on session handlers, I ignore the session_data that gets passed to my session_write function and create my own session data string like this: function sess_write($key, $val) { // SGH - 10/03/2002 // globals off bug work around!!! The session data // passed in is not always updated with new values. // so we'll build our on session data from the // super global $_SESSION. $sesson_data = ""; while (list($name, $value) = each($_SESSION)) { $$name = $value['tmp_name']; if (is_string($value)) { $session_data .= $name.'|s:'.strlen($value).':'.chr(34).$value.chr(34).";"; } elseif (is_int($value)) { $session_data .= $name.'|i:'.$value.";"; } elseif (is_float($value)) { $session_data .= $name.'|d:'.$value.";"; } } $val = $session_data; // more code ............ This works, however, seems to point to a PHP bug, since $val does not contain the new varibles until I set it to the string I created from the super global $_SESSION. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19740&edit=1
