Is this really a doc issue? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-25 00:00:26] ryan at daelibs dot com dot au Description: ------------ When you use a session name that has only numbers, each call to session_start seems to regenerate a new session id, so the session does not persist. The code below can be loaded and refreshed to reproduce the behaviour Reproduce code: --------------- <?php //This name works //session_name('A9'); //This name doesn't session_name('99'); session_start(); echo 'Session Name: '.session_name().'<br />'; echo 'Session Id: '.session_id().'<br />'; ?> Expected result: ---------------- Session Name: 99 Session Id: {{a sid that remains the same between each refresh }} Actual result: -------------- Session Name: 99 Session Id: {{a different sid each refresh}} ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27688&edit=1
