Hi, I am making a wap application and I am using PHP's session handler. I pass different values between scripts and I end up with an url which seems to be too long: nextscript.php?var1=something&var2=else&PHPSESID=5345345345...whatever As I have found out, some wap browsers simply crash if the url is too long. If I don't use PHP's session handling, and therefore the PHPSESID value is not embeded in the url, the wap browser performs fine. My question is: Is there a way to use session handling in a "silent mode"? Can I supress the display of PHPSESID in the url? At least can I reduce the lenght of the value? Thanks for any help. Alex.
