appending sid to URLs

[necron]

I want to use PHP session variables without cookies. I have got sid turned on in the php.ini and it is being appended to the URL automatically when I click on href links in my website.

The problem is using php pages that redirect the user automatically. How do I append the sid to the URL in those cases?

So let's say I use a header like this:

header("Location: test.php")

There must be a way to append the sid to that URL?

Thanks heaps!

header("Location: test.php?sid=".session_id());

[necron]

Alright! I see.

So if I want to use it, I have to not only append session_id() to the headers, but also to forms that I submit (as hidden fields)?

And if the user has got cookies turned on, there will be an empty variable appended to the URL from time to time?

E.g.

http://yaddayadda.com/test.php?sid=

Use the SID constant instead. It will be empty if the cookie is working properly.

header('Location: test.php?' . SID );

That's even better. But what about forms that I submit using GET or POST? I presume I still have to create a hidden input field that carries the sid on?
