try this, but try across subdomains. .htaccess for sub1 php_value session.name eisessid php_value session.auto_start 1 php_value session.save_path /home/blah/tmp php_value session.cookie_domain .blah.com now make a script and add a session variable... just register anything... now make a replica of this .htaccess for sub2 but remove session.name directive. now in sub2 try to access the session variable of sub1 you wont be able to. add the session_name into your script (not .htaccess) and try again.. and ofcourse the session_id.. yet wont work now in .htaccess add the session.name directive and set it to blahsessid and in the sub2 page, set session_name to eisessid so u can access sub1's sessvar. you should be able to do it now. even if u change .htaccess to eisessid it will work this shows u can access the session variable of another sub only if there is a directive for session.name in .htaccess even tho the session name is different. but otherwise without this directive it just wont work.

I found that if i set some other session name into .htaccess i can yet retrieve information from my actual session variable (eisessid). but if i dont add anything into .htaccess (default being phpsessid) it doesnt seem to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-02 06:19:31] [EMAIL PROTECTED] i almost forgot session_name also returns eisessid if i set it from my script but doesnt return any session variable info. But using .htaccess it yet returns eisessid as session name but this time it returns the session variable info as well. (both cases session_id remains the same). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-02 05:57:17] [EMAIL PROTECTED] session_name is supposed to get/set the session name. So basically if i have a session variable which is registered under a particular session name and a session id i should be able to propogate it across any subdomain. Now heres the real problem i have a domain.com which works on eisessid as its session name and i have abc.domain.com which i am trying to access the session information. When i set session_name to eisessid i do not get the information of that session(from within my php script). However, when i put session.name as eisessvar in my .htaccess of abc.domain.com i am able to retrieve the information. Since session_name is supposed to set/get the name of the session and i am propogating the session id to work, shouldnt session_name from within my code be able to access the session variables ? instead of having to only do it from .htaccess ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16389&edit=1
