#33619 [NEW]: Confusing faq about emulating register_globals

From: holliwell at gmx dot net Operating system: n/a PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Confusing faq about emulating register_globals Description: ------------ Hi, http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-regenerate-id.php The description of parameter delete_old_session is a bit vague. It is not clear what " Whether to delete the old session or not." does exactly mean. Are the session files on the server destroyed, the data in $_SESSION unset, or all together? What is happen to the session cookie, if cookies used? This issues should be clarified.
