ssl & Sessions = Trouble ?

[koenigsbote]

Hi,

I'm using sessions, and after opening a ssl-secure-page i loose information. 🙁

Does SSL "hide" or do something with my Session-Information (sessionid) ? Because i try to read data out of my mysql-database comparing the information with my sessionid !!

Please help!! 🙂

Thanx.

I had a similar problem.

Ended up solving it by putting the session data into a form within the page and POSTing the form to the SSL protected page.

Once in the SSL page, reinsert the POSTed form data into the session.

I know it's a hack, but like I said, it worked for me!

HTH.

See my explanation here for a solution that doesn't expose your session variables to the browser:
