Thanks Luis, I had this idea in mind, but still... maybe someone knows a way how to achieve same effect without using JavaScript? Not that I don't like it but that there should be some way.
PS. Your english is just as great as mine :D -----Original Message----- From: Luis Ferro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 10, 2003 4:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] One of the things that can be happening is that the server is sending the "location:" before the session data in the header... and when the browser gets it, simply forgots the session data. I'm not sure of in which version of PHP there was a problem like the one i'm describing, but i remember very well that i've made a Javascript redirector to place in the end of the page (after the session manipulation) to force the current page to go to the browser whole and then in the browser be redirected to the new page where the session was needed...
