#25796 [NEW]: Session variables and inline frames

From: corpheous at yahoo dot com Operating system: Win XP PHP version: 4.3.2 PHP Bug Type: Session related Bug description: Session variables and inline frames Description: ------------ This is a very simple to reproduce bug (to me). What I have is two pages, one is an inline frame in the other. I cannot transfer session variables from one page to the other because I cannot use session_start(); twice or else I get this error: Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\vod2\gamev2\index.php:8) in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\vod2\gamev2\left-menu.php on line 2 That means I can't have a session_start in the inline frame and the page that has in the inline frame in it. This is a problem when a user (me) wants to have a menu bar on the side dynamically change when the user logs in with the INLINE frame because the session_variables are not recognized in the parent page because I cannot start a session_start in it or else I get the error reported above. Reproduce code: --------------- No code needed, it's just session_start usage Expected result: ---------------- I would expect no errors to be produced when I try to use session_start in an inline frame AND the parent page Actual result: -------------- Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\vod2\gamev2\index.php:8) in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\vod2\gamev2\left-menu.php on line 2 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25796&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25796&r=float
