Subject: RE: [PHP] @session_start generates a new session_id



It still doesn't work :(... When I try to destroy the session without asking
if there's a session_id, it gives me a warning, I fixed it with the
if(session_id()) but still, when the user logs in again with a different
profile, in the same browser window, the profile that is loaded is the
previous one... Here I copy the logout.php code: <?
$_SESSION['validlogin']=""; 
$_SESSION['username']=""; 
$_SESSION['password']=""; //destroy the sessions array 
$_SESSION = array(); 
//destroy the session
if(session_id()){
session_destroy(); 
}
?>

And the code that runs when the user logs in:
<?
$username=trim($_POST['user']);
$password=trim($_POST['pwd']);

if(session_id()){echo('Error, please contact tech support'); exit();}
if(validateuser()){                       
                          session_start();
                                                  
                          $_SESSION['validlogin']=true;
                          $_SESSION['username']=$username;
                          $_SESSION['password']=$password;
}
...
?>
Any ideas why the session variables get set to their first value after
starting the session for the second time? Should I create a different
session id each time? Tia, Lizet

Instead of:
        <? $_SESSION['validlogin']=""; $_SESSION['username']="";
$_SESSION['password']=""; unset($_SESSION['validlogin']);
unset($_SESSION['username']); unset($_SESSION['password']);
session_unset(); print("username=".$_SESSION    ['username']);
        print("password=".$_SESSION['password']);

        if(session_id()){
        session_destroy();}
        ?>

Try this:

//unregister the sessions
$_SESSION['validlogin']=""; $_SESSION['username']="";
$_SESSION['password']=""; //destroy the sessions array $_SESSION = array(); 
//destroy the session
session_destroy();
