RES: RES: [PHP-INSTALL] Can't enable use_trans_sid

{top posting warning} I was hoping someone had a clue on this, as it doesn't look like a uncommon thing. They only use IE and they won't change that in a near future, it's one company only but with hundreds of simultaneous users. I could not reproduce that with Firefox, as it's a random thing I can't tell for sure if it's a browser thing. After much struggling and study, I think I'll just tell them it cannot be done w/o modifying too much of the app (removing the need of cookies to use trans_sid). Thanks a lot for helping!

If so, do they have the same problem? Regards Keith
