ID: 23681 Comment by: ross dot cornell at molins dot com Reported By: php at lapage dot com Status: Assigned Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.3.1 Assigned To: sas New Comment:
This is causing me problems with php 4.3.1 and 5.0.1 It happens after the first session_start(); on every frame. My application is worldwide, someone in the far east was having this problem, i thought PHPSESSID was pulling illegal charactgers out of their character set. Then it happened to me on this laptop, running winXP. As far as i can tell it is client side, as it is only effecting the same 2 machines, so far anyway. Both with ie6. If anyone finds why this is, workaround etc, please mail me.
