From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Determine if session data is available before running session_start()
Description: ------------ Sometimes it is good to be able to determine if there is session data available before running session_start(), but if there isn't, you don't want to start a session. A session takes resources and giving a cookie to a user is in some cases something you only want to do if really necessary. Here in Sweden we aren't allowed to use cookies without giving the user knowledge in what we are storing in it. so a session_is_available() or similar would be a good thing IMHO. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27607&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27607&r=float
