Bug description: Session ID appears twice in the URL when using SID
This might be considered cosmetic but anyways... When using the SID constant in the URL, with
cookies disabled in the browser, like so:
print("<a href=\"foo.php?" . SID . "\">");
the session ID appears twice in the URL, like so:
<a
href="foo.php?Foobar=c83d394a4abf9bee89571af1cb5bdcc8&Foobar=c83d394a4abf9bee89571af1cb5bdcc8">
I don't know if this contributes to the bug, but obviously I've also called
session_name("Foobar");
before using SID. Also, the ampersand in the URL is not valid HTML; the URL should read
<a
href="foo.php?Foobar=c83d394a4abf9bee78571af1cb5bdcc8&Foobar=c83d394a4abf9bee78571af1cb5bdcc8">
