RE: php 4.1.2 / $_SESSION

I'm including the text of a previous discussion on this subject: -- begin include 4.1.1 works perfectly well but when they introduced 4.1.2, there was a bug that was introduced also. -----Original Message----- From: Martin Kemp [mailto:martin@quintic.co.uk] Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 5:24 AM To: php-windows@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] Re: Session information not stored in php 4.1.2 Thanks for that - I'd found mention of the problem on google groups yesterday, but they didn't include a resolution. I'll try it tonight and report my results. BTW: For the record, my mention of 4.0.6 was incorrect - it was actually 4.1.1 that it worked with $_SESSION without the need for session_register, etc. It was when I installed 4.1.2 that my problems started.
