I've been having loads of problems with AOL users and finally come to
the conclusion that if a user has an AOL browser, session data is lost
as soon as they move to the next page.
I have not yet found a solution to this so to avoid losing business
from any AOL user it looks like I may have to re-write script so not to
use sessions.
One way I thought was when a user logs in, a random string, similar to
a session id (can't use the session id because AOL browsers can change
it from page to page) is stored to a database with a reference to that
user. This unique id is passed from page to page in the URL.
Then on everypage, the id in the URL is checked against the database
and if exists, that user must be logged in and their data can be
retrieved.
Any thoughts on this process?
Many Thanks
Mike
