Hello, I had the exact same problem as you last week with IE 6.0 I was building my session on a domain but the variable used to build the session were coming from another domain. I was using a file on my server associated ususally with another domain and that file had a session_start() I do not know what of these 2 thing caused the problem because I change both at the same time and it worked! (I move the login form and didn't use the file...) It seems to be a problem with the default security settings of IE 6.0 because when I was doing: Tools/Internet Options/Privacy/Advanced/and select "Override automatic cookie handling" everything worked! hope it help, py ----- Original Message ----- From: "Herb Wiser" <herbwiser@usa.net> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2001 9:50 AM Subject: [PHP] Losing Session Variable in IE Only? > I am having the strangest problem and I'm not sure there is anybody on this > planet smart enough to figure it out.... > > I have a PHP application that I was running and testing under an existing > URL, but by adding a port number to go to a different directory. > > Like this, http://www.investmentteams.com:3333 > > It worked fine.
