Note Submitter: admin at ndevix dot com Reason: bad code ---- As for passing the session id to a pop up you may want to consider this in case of browser hijacking. on the page the pop up is launched from have <? session_start(); $_SESSION['ip']=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; ?> window.open('popup.php?u=<?php echo session_id(); ?>', '700x500', 'toolbar=no, status=no, scrollbars=yes, location=no, menubar=no, directories=no, width=700, height=500'); and on the pop up have <? session_start(); if($_SESSION['uid']=='') { session_id(strip_tags($_GET['u'])); session_start(); if($_SESSION['ip']!==$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) { session_destroy(); echo 'HACKER!!!.. Your ip was logged and we are now going to watch you.'; exit(); } } ?> then continue on with pop up code. Hope this helps people worried about security.
