Reproduce code: --------------- <? session_start(); if (isset($_POST['username'])) { $_SESSION = $_POST; } if ($_SESSION['username'] != "myuser" OR $_SESSION['password'] != "mypass") { print "<form enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" method=\"post\" action=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."\"> <input type=\"Text\" name=\"username\"><BR><input type=\"Password\" name=\"password\"><BR><input type=\"Submit\" value=\"Login\"> </form>"; die(); } ?> You are logged in!<BR> You will clear the $_SESSION variable by clicking <a href="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>">here</a>. Expected result: ---------------- Once logged in, the page should look identical before and after clicking the link. Actual result: -------------- Once logged in, clicking the link requires you to login again because the $_SESSION variable is not being passed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37935&edit=1
