There is a setting in the php.ini file named "session.use_trans_sid", which
enables appending the session ID if PHP was compiled with enable-trans-sid.
You could try setting this to 0 if you are allowed to set up an .htaccess
file on the server. Create the .htaccess file with the following line in it:
php_flag session.use_trans_sid 0
I haven't tried this for disabling enable-trans-sid, but have used it to
enable/disable other php.ini settings. Good luck!

62&PHPSESSID=4
96312b318b435c21e1e13016f7e8262
The session info is there twice. Once you reload the page or go to another
page, the auto appended stuff (&PHPSESSID=496312b318b435c21e1e13016f7e8262)
goes away.
Is there a way to stop this from happening when trans-sid has been enabled
via the compile?
Thanks for any help,
beth
