You can solve this problem by not working with cookies and instead forwarding the sessionID with the URL: <A target="blank" href="http://www.themuralsofwinnipeg.com/Mpages/index.php?<?= SID; ?>&action=gotomural&muralid=179"> So if you open a new page WITHOUT forwarding the sessionID a new session will be started.
