Re: -enable-trans-sid on Windows NT?

Another comment on this issue. Yes it would be helpful, especially for upgrading legacy PHP3 sites using sessions, to get a W32 binary with enable-trans-sid ON BUT (1) then we'd need a way of specifying which of the php4 binaries to call, and (2) in the majority of cases I would wish to _not_ have to pay the overhead of that option being active for the rest of the sites on a server. Dunno if it's possible -- but it would be sweeter if the flag could be set via php.ini (and .htaccess ;-) my 2cents. Tom H At 10:59 AM 7/1/00 +0100, Andy Warwick wrote:

Having a few problems with sessions under Windows NT/IIS. I understand the session stuff okay, and have actually got it working, carrying required variables from page to page no problem. Problem comes when I want to cope with those people who might have cookies turned off. I understand the principle, in that you need to take the session ID between pages by tagging the URLs with <?php echo /"?/".SID ?>. I've even got that working. :) The problem is that I am using FastTemplates to keep code and html apart; because all my URLs are in the templates, I have to use a clunky workaround to tag them (define a {SESSION_ID} that is appended to every href manually). What would be ideal is if the windows binary could be compiled with the -enable-trans-sid option, as stated in the docs, so all this stuff is automatically added, but I have no idea if that's even possible. Can I get hold of another Windows binary, identical to the standard one, but with that option enabled? Like I say, I've got it working, but I'd really like it to be automatic, so I don't have to worry about designers editing the templates forgetting to include the {SESSION_ID} tag on all the links.
