Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-10 07:22:34] mike at php dot net Nope ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-10 05:54:56] mj at php dot net I can't reproduce this. Anyone else? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-09 20:41:17] davey at php dot net Description: ------------ The English and French manuals both show the following error BUT only if you're NOT logged in: <br /> <b>Warning</b>: session_start(): The session id contains invalid characters, valid characters are only a-z, A-Z and 0-9 in <b>/usr/local/www/pearweb/include/pear-prepend.php</b> on line <b>98</b><br /> Now, because the page has a <?xml ?> tag in it, IE will always try to read it as XML regardless of the text/html content type or not, thus: The XML page cannot be displayed Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Only one top level element is allowed in an XML document. Error processing resource 'http://pear.php.net/manual/en/'. Line... <b>Warning</b>: session_start(): The session id contains invalid characters, valid characters are only a-z, A-Z... The error itself doesn't seem to have a reason, its a simple session_start() and I see nothing setting an alternate session_id... - Davey ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=3760&edit=1
