Note Submitter: tchalvakspam at gmail dot com ---- Be aware that if a browser isn't accepting cookies, it can cause the session to invisibly not save between two pages. So for example, in Firefox 3.0.6 there is a bug where "localhost" addresses are currently not saving cookies. This will kill any attempts to use session code in development where localhost is used. One workaround for this is to use a different synonym for the localhost address, i.e. http://127.0.0.1/, or set up a virtualhost, e.g. http://localdevelopment/ Overall, pay close attention if you see to different, unexpected session behavior in two different browsers, it may be a result of the cookies being handled differently or being dropped.
