Depends on the value of the php.ini value, "session.use_only_cookies". If this is set, the answer is NO. If it isn't, then PHP should transmit the session_id transparently via the URL during the session (last I recall, this was what happened, anyways)...

ATM, I'm needing to leave, perhaps I'll check back later. 🙂

Hi dalescop,

sorry for the slow reply, dead busy and i forgot i posted on here.

That is set to 0 - but the one that does it is trans_session_id=1 which when on seems to allow it to work, how much of a security risk is displaying the SessionID's in the URL? i'm regenerating the Session_ID on login, but i suppose they can still be transferred to another user. Is it just a case of cleaning up old sessions quickly?
