Hi all,

Maybe this is a somehow stupid question.

I want to know how php could know whether session_start() has been called, that 
is, whether session has been started.

I Googled, but got little help.

Thank you for help!
Any tip is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Shelley


http://us3.php.net/session_id

is what you are looking for.

Look at the notes for the "Return Values" section

"session_id() returns the session id for the current session or the empty string ("") if there is no current session (no current session id exists)."

So, something like this will do.

<?php

$sid = session_id();
if ( $sid == '' ) {
        // No session started yet.
} else {
        // Session has been started.
}
?>
