Of course, PHP should be reading the Session ID from a cookie sent along with the headers, so you might check to make sure that the domain parameter for the cookie is originally being set in such a way that the script you're calling through AJAX has access to read the cookie. I've had similar problems working across subdirectories in vanilla PHP. Here's the link to the cookie parameters for sessions. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-get-cookie-params.php
