PHP session

[jkh168]

I call the session_start() on every page to check if a user is logged in. However, whenever a page is loaded, a new session file is created in the session path. Does anyone know where the problem is.

I could force the page to load the same session by passing the PHPSESSID, but I opt not to do that. Is there any other way, or perhaps some settings that I need to make in the php.ini to fix this problem?

Thanks.

I'm confused...

every time you call session_start() it starts a new session.
That's what it is supposed to do.

Why not pass a variable called $loggedin that equals true or false?

Once a session is started, it is still good the next page.
You dont' need to start again. If you do, it will just start a new session.
