I also store session variables. I noticed that if I put the following HTML tag inside the include file: <img src="" height="5" width="5"> My session data gets reset. Ok, the point here is no one should have an empty image source tag. When the src is populated, the problem does not occur. Reproduce code: --------------- <? include('/path/to/the/file.php'); ?> Expected result: ---------------- User should continue onto the next page of the website. Actual result: -------------- My error checking reports that the user is no longer logged in. This is due to the session variable being reset by this HTML code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25966&edit=1
