Re: [PHP] loosing session in new window (IE only) [SOLVED]
this is happening when Security on IE (internet options) is on levels "High" or "Block all cookies.." most likely there is a solution to fix this but I think (in my case) is not worth and it's much easier to tell client (their administrator) to "trust the world" a little bit more :D thanks for all posts. -ll - Original Message From: Stefan Langwald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: php-general@lists.php.net Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 9:20:33 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] loosing session in new window (IE only) href="person.php?id=123&SESSIONID=..." maybe.. ev0l but works.. 2008/3/26, Lamp Lists <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > --- Richard Lynch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Tue, March 25, 2008 4:07 pm, Lamp Lists wrote: > > > - Original Message > > > From: Andrew Ballard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > To: PHP General list > > > Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 3:41:35 PM > > > Subject: Re: [PHP] loosing session in new window > > (IE only) > > > > > > On Tue, Mar 25, 2008 at 3:49 PM, Lamp Lists > > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > wrote: > > >> hi, > > >> i have a list of people on one page. each row, > > on the end has link > > >> view > > details. > > >> it's requested to open detail page in new > > window. > > >> very few people complained they can't open > > detail page. all of them > > >> use IE. > > >> I wasn't able to reproduce the error, though > > using GoToMeeting I > > >> was able to look while customer was doing it. > > >> I put session info on screen to see what's going > > on and found that > > >> new window doesn't have session info from "old" > > window?!? like, new > > >> window - new session. > > >> > > >> does anybody knows anything about this? > > >> > > >> thanks. > > >> > > >> -ll > > > > > > If they open a new window by clicking on IE (say, > > on the desktop, the > > > QuickLaunch bar, or the Start menu), Windows > > actually opens a new, > > > totally separate process of IE along side the > > first.

The new one will share any persistent cookies with the first, since they are written to the file system, but sessions do not usually use persistent cookies. As long as your users are opening the new window by clicking a link or by pressing Ctrl+N from the first window, the session information *should* remain in tact.
