Problems with cookies in IE

[hovelsj]

I use the $_SESSION var to keep control of sessions, but I have problems with IE. IE wont use the cookies that is created. Every time session_start() is called, the browser creates another cookie without using the one allready created...I got the same problem with Mozilla FireFox, but not i Opera.

I need som clues. Thanks in advance.

Add this to your script right under your session_start(); call.

header("Cache-control: private");

I am not 100% certain what this does, other than to say I was told it was a fix for IE6 and Mozilla regarding sessions. Maybe one of the Session/Header gurus out there can shed some light on this. I may be way out in left field, but like I said, this was told to me once, and I put it in my snippet library.
