note 101902 added to function.session-start

Be aware that when you deliver your flash file through php, session_start() does not run in Opera, Safari and IE9. I didn't test it with IE6-8. Chrome and Firefox are OK. I don't know the real reason but guessing some of the header data are missing. swf.php: <?php session_start(); // this doesn't execute in some browsers header('Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash'); readfile('/path/to/flash.swf'); ?> <object width="550" height="400"> <param name="movie" value="http://example.com/swf/"> </object> * swf directory has an .htaccess file which points to swf.php ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 24.130.233.142 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-start.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/101902 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101902 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/101902 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
