It's either bug in IE or bug in your code.
Similar stuff (when coded correctly) works fine.
For example several webshops I've done..

No, same problem. And the commented out session code did that previous
btw here..
//$_SESSION['session_memberID']=$session_memberID;
//$_SESSION['session_username']=$session_username;
//$_SESSION['session_groupID']=$membergroup;
However anyway, no... still getting logged out in IE.

try:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['session_memberID'] = $row[id];
$_SESSION['session_username'] = $row[username];
$_SESSION['session_groupID'] = $row[membergroup];
?>
as the documentation says:
If you are using $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS), do not use
session_register(), session_is_registered(), and session_unregister().
The above example will do the same thing - try it.

Description:
------------
Dear Whomever,
I have recently launched the new Planet-Tolkien.com.
It would appear that for Mozilla and Opera keeping a $_SESSION is not
an issue and the $_SESSION is continued until the member logs out.
However when members are using Internet Explorer browser 6 (and maybe
other versions), they can go around the site for varied amounts of
time, usually less than five to ten minutes and then their $_SESSION
will expire!!??
I cannot for the life of me figure out why a server side $_SESSION
would expire on IE but not for MOZ or Opera but it is, and I need to
figure out why and how can I fix this.
I have read a similar bug report with reference to this, about
hostnames having underscores in them, but this is not the problem in
our case.
REF. All login information is saved as such:
session_save_path("$path/sessions");
session_start();
//store member session information
$session_memberID=$row[id];
$session_username=$row[username];
$session_groupID=$row[membergroup];
session_register("session_memberID");
session_register("session_username");
session_register("session_groupID");
//$_SESSION['session_memberID']=$session_memberID;
//$_SESSION['session_username']=$session_username;
//$_SESSION['session_groupID']=$membergroup;
Please please please help, I truelly have tried everything!
In Fellowship,
Tarrant
Reproduce code:
---------------
// EXAMPLE CODE 1:
// member login successfull so register sessions
session_save_path("$path/sessions");
session_start();
//store member session information
$session_memberID=$row[id];
$session_username=$row[username];
$session_groupID=$row[membergroup];
session_register("session_memberID");
session_register("session_username");
session_register("session_groupID");
//$_SESSION['session_memberID']=$session_memberID;
//$_SESSION['session_username']=$session_username;
//$_SESSION['session_groupID']=$membergroup;
// EXAMPLE CODE 2: check member is logged in
Function checkLoginIn() {
if(!isset($_SESSION['session_memberID'])) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}
