PHPLib Sessions

[Anon]

I am having a problem with IE5 and a duplicate entry error that pops up every now and again ... I think it may have to do with me issuing a header("location: xxx.php3"); command. I reckon the page_close(); should go before not after or doesnt it matter ?

I of course have tried both but I am thinking I am missing a spot because there are lots of scripts.

Man this is frustrating has anybody got this working well with IE5 you know more than just a 5 line example.

I have a full app running with the setup you describe, but I'm running php4 with phplib.

Anytime you issue a header("location: blah") in php, you should always do an exit() right after, or else your script will continue to run.

Try that to see if it fixes your prob.

Thats cool I have an exit there it seems to be a problem with the IE5, netscape works fine. Must be something to do with the cookie handling difference between IE5 and Netscape because I think it is insert the row into the active_sessions table creating a cookie checking to see if it works than doing the backup "GET" because it thinks it failed then trying to insert another row which gives you the duplicate row error.
