#16349 [Com]: no way to tell if a session exists without starting it

ID: 16349 Comment by: powerblade@mail.dk Reported By: adam@adeptsoftware.com Status: Suspended Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: WinXP PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: I had the same problem. I wanted to knew if the session was started or not. I found out i should do a session_id(); If it returns "null" then it's not started yet, else it returns the session id.

Knowing if a session has been created or not without having to create one seems pretty basic to me.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-03 11:57:46] rasmus@php.net I don't know, I am pretty good at having bugs even in stuff I haven't implemented yet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-03 11:48:19] derick@php.net If it isn't implemented, there can't be a bug in it. Moving this to a feature request.

There is no question to ask, other than why has noone implemented this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
