note 68710 added to function.session-start

when you're using session trans sid ENABLED, and you perform redirect such as Header( "Location..." ), redirected client will SURELY loose his session. to avoid this, you can use a modified version of redirect function, like this: <?php function Redirect302( $location ) { $sname = session_name(); $sid = session_id(); if( strlen( $sid ) < 1 ) { Header( $location ); return; } if( isset( $_COOKIE[ $sname ] ) || strpos( $location, $sname."=".$sid ) !== false ) { Header( $location ); return; } else { if( strpos( $location, "?" ) > 0 ) $separator = "&"; else $separator = "?"; $fixed = $location . $separator . $sname."=".$sid; Header( $fixed ); return; } } ?> expamle: Redirect302( "Location: /YourPage/index.php" ); the function performs common redirect if no session is active, and appends session "name=sid" to query string when session is already started, like PHP parser does when outputting your page. hope, you'll find it useful. yours:) ---- Server IP: 66.163.161.117 Probable Submitter: 213.184.229.145 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-start.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/68710 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68710 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/68710 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
