Is there any particular reason I should still use $_POST?

Also, I'm reading mixed things about sessions. php.net says you can
propagate session IDs either via cookies or session IDs:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php#session.idpassing

OK cool.

However, PHP in a nutshell makes no mention of this. Paul just says
hey, use session_start() and you're on your way:

http://hudzilla.org/phpwiki/index.php?title=Cookies_and_sessions

I tested it out, and it works either way.

Can someone please explain what the session ID does?

Thanks!
