I am indeed not using output buffering. I call session_start as the first thing on every page, before the headers are sent. I also call session_start on my login page, first thing.
If I use output buffering, do you think that would fix things? I could call session_start() again as a callback function after the ajax finishes, perhaps...? thanks, -kim --- Aaron Heimlich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 3/30/07, Kim Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Should I be recalling > > session_start? > > > As a general rule, you should call session_start() > in *every* PHP script > that accesses $_SESSION.
