Hello J.O. Aho!


Many thanks to you for replying to my post. Let's try your suggestion
into coding as follows:
test-a.php:
<?php
session_start();
$sid=session_id();
setcookie('sid', $sid, time()+60*60*24*7);
header('Location: test-b.php');

exit;

?>

test-b.php:
<?php
session_start();
$sid2=session_id();
$sid1=$_COOKIE['sid'];
echo "<h1>Session #1 = $sid1</h1><h1>Session #2 = $sid2</h1>";

exit;

?>

Running test-a.php will redirect to test-b.php, the two session id's
echoed are the same session id. Your suggestion doesn't work! Please
correct my coding if I misinterpret your suggestion.

Any Suggestions Are Welcome!!!

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Best Regards,

cibalo
