turning use session cookies off still uses cookies?

["blackwater dev" <blackwaterdev@xxxxxxxxx>]

I asked a similar question the other day but I have been having an issue
lately with my sessions and certain browsers.  I then tried to set my
session.use_cookies var in php.ini to 0 yet if I log in and don't have
cookies turned on, the sessions still don't seem to work.  Can I really use
sessions without using cookies?  Below is my code and sessions settings.  If
I can use sessions without cookies, seems like that would solve the issue of
people having cookies turned on.

Thanks,

//this is from the login routine
if ($this->db->getField('user_id')){

                       session_start();

$_SESSION['user']['user_id']=$this->db->getField('user_id');

$_SESSION['user']['email']=$this->db->getField('email');
                       return true;
}

       <?
       //only show if they are logged in
       if (isset($_SESSION['user']['user_id']) && !$_REQUEST['mlsid']){
//show something
}
       ?>
