#33947 [NEW]: session.cookie_domain default behavior undocumented

From: gabe at mudbugmedia dot com Operating system: Linux/Debian PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: session.cookie_domain default behavior undocumented Description: ------------ For the php.ini setting session.cookie_domain, the default value of '' (empty string) is documented in the php.ini and on the website. However, the meaning of the empty string value, and its expected default behavior, is not documented. The documentation needs updating to state what cookie domain will be sent to the browser. As of now I am getting conflicting reports of whether this empty value should set the cookie to '.blah.com' (to go across all sub-domains) or just 'www.blah.com' -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33947&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33947&r=mysqlcfg
