David B, Thanks for suggestions, but this is a very basic app, again it has only three php scripts which it runs and all three load (include) the exact same header file which starts the session. Also, again, when clicking on the links, which basically just switch between the three php scripts, I can click the the same link over and over again (or back and forth between two links) and it works just fine (for 5-10 clicks for instance), then all of a sudden the next time it clears. There is no javascript being used in this application. Your notion of giving a complete url with a link or redirection sounded intriguing, unfortunately after a quick scan of my app they do not use the full url only file.php example.
