pass the user id to the page as a url variable. maybe set a unique cookie
name for that value that won't get destroyed when the person logs out.

Subject: [PHP] Session problems with popup window
I can't seem to find an elegant solution to this and was hoping you guys
could
offer some insight.
We are using sessions on our webpage and one of the links on our main
page,
launches a separate popup window which has some PHP on it and contains
some
java applets which launch our web-based trading application. The thing is
that part of this page requires that we have the user ID for a database
lookup
which is part of the user's session data. Basically, it lets the user
refresh
a directory to see if a file is there and available for download. If the
user
logs out in the main window, we lose this session data and the user ID and
the
page chokes because it cannot find the user directory because we've lost
the
user ID.
Does anyone have any ideas how we can get around this? Thanks in advance
for
any replies -- this mailing list has been a huge help for us.
