rectified - - problems with sessions

hello all, the bug is in the php.ini file. i've to change the session.cookie_path = / before it was set to another location outside of my server. some times small bugs irritate a lot. i've been struggling for this since 4-5 days. How nice it would be if php have good debugging or atleast waring capabilites....... origina mail follows : this is second or third time i'm mailing this. please help me. hi all, i'm using a php4.0.6 with apache on win2k. when i register a session and immediately if i redirect to another page the session seems not to be registered. eg. <? session_start(); $value = 908; session_register("value"); header("location : new location"); ?> when i go to the new page i c that the session has not been reigstered. but in case if i dont redirect from php rather use a html redirection code like "click here to redirect" then it worked. why ? <? session_start(); $value = 908; session_register("value"); ?> <a href="newlocation">click here to redirect</a> (this worked out ) any suggestions ? /sagar // ------------------------------------ // end of original mail check out for those small pits. /sagar
