OK, I've tried to shorten it by stripping out the specifics of the code.
This is a test case for when a browser sends a bad cookie ID. At a new
session outputs should only be for $uno, $one, $four, $cookieTime and
$cookieRand (no session cookieID and not stored). Whether it's a new
session or not, Firefox gets $uno, $duos, $one, $five and $six (has session
cookieID and is stored) but not $four, $cookieTime or $cookieRand.
Also, $storedCookie comes back as 1 instead of 0 which should not happen
if the psql query was done before the cookieID was stored.
What's extra confusing is that, otherwise, it behaves as it should, a new
value is inserted into the database, the cookie value held by FF changes
to this new value and all seems well. The only thing I can think of that
could be causing this would be FF calling the page again when a new cookie
is set and reloading it in which case the values would be valid, but this
seems an unorthodox way for a browser to behave and could make debugging
an issue in future.
