I am new to PHP moving over from ASP and one of things I relied on heavily was session variables. It seems that everytime a new page is opened it starts a new session. I have set up a simple test site you can see whats happening - easier than to explain. http://www.cflsquad.com/index.php Use Username: testuser Password: testpassword the next page after log in should read "You are logged in as: testuser". What tells me is that the session variable is resetting to a new on each page is that the 'testuder' text doesn't show becuase the session var is being read. These exact same pages work fine oon a Linux server so I know its a Windows Server issue. The odd thing is that the session ID is passed and saved but the session variable that is created on log in is not passed. Again, it woks just fine on a Linux server - just not Windows. I have changed the path in the php.ini file as many have suggested fixes the problem but it hasn't made a difference for me.
