session_start() is working fine; vars have there values set and are accesible, but there is no session cookie set; i cant find PHPSESSID cookie name. what am i doing wrong? dont know if this helps, but i CAN set cookies using setcookie().
hi,
dont know if this helps you, but i had a problem with IE6 / cookies also some times ago. i've a website (let us call it http://space.at/usermiraculix/megasite/), which has to set a cookie. because of the very bad url i decided to frame it at a better url (www.megasite.org) ... problem: IE6 doesnt except cookies from framed sites by default.
so if you're site gets framed, this could be the reason why it does not work ...

no i dont use frames. the only cookie problem i have is when session_start() is called-does not set PHPSESSID cookie. i can set and access cookies with set_cookie() gives no problem. i also should say i can access the session id and all the vars without a problem.

What happens in other browsers? It is possible to turn off PHP's use of cookies for sessions, and that might be responsible.
i checked it with mozilla 1.8 and firefox 0.8 and netscape 7 and they are fine; session start() sets the PHPSESSID cookie and any cookies i set using set_cookie(). this is really bugging me. the sessions though work fine on all browsers i tested on; just the PHPSESSID is not set on ie6. didnt test on aol or any ie browsers lower than version 6. my site will be live in a week, so i ll make another post.
thanks
