Jan,
How PHP handles session id's is determined by the php.ini file. You
have two options: session.use_cookies and session.use_only_cookies.
If session.use_cookies is 1, PHP will attempt to store the session id in
a cookie. If it's 0, PHP will pass the session id in the URL.
If session.use_cookies is 1 and the cookies are disabled on the browser,
then session.use_only_cookies comes into play. If that is 0, PHP will
again pass the session id in the browser. And if it's 1, PHP will just
not pass the session id at all.
If you're on a shared host, you may be able to override these in your
..htaccess file. It all depends on what your host allows.
