Re-initiating an autostarted session

[Ville Mattila <ville@xxxxxx>]

Hi there,

I have some problems with PHP session handling. I have set to .htaccess 
file that PHP will start sessions and use cookies only automatically. 
Everything works fine until I need to re-initiate the session (give a 
new session ID and destroy the old one). For some reason, the old 
session id persists.

I use the following functions:

session_destroy();
session_regenerate_id();
session_write_close();
Header("Location: ...");
exit;

For my point of view, this should do exactly what I like to do: destroy 
the old session data, generate a new one, write them and redirect the 
user to next page.

I remember somehow that there have been problems with SetCookie and 
Header("Location: ..") combination. Could this session problem arise due 
same reasons?

Well, I'm happy to hear the fixes or workarounds. =)

Thanks,
Ville
