I am working on getting my forum compliant, before I go on a coding spree and kill all in my path;).

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%...&doctype=Inline

Results. I dont want sid in the url, and I did add

session.use_trans_sid = 0

to php.ini but it wont work:(

[HaloprO]

Well you can use a work around like this

<?php
if (!isset($_SESSION['variable'])) {
	session_start();
	header('Location: index.php');
} else {
	session_start();
}
?>

When the user first visits the page it will redirect back to the same page, and then it won't show PHPSESSID in links.

Halopr0, i don't think that was his question. He wants it to validate (or at least that's the way it appears).

http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini....eparator.output
These links should provide the info you're looking for, if what i think you're asking is correct.

In the link, instead of putting <a href="something.php?&PHPSESSID=, put <a href="something.php?&amp;PHPSESSID=. That's the problem. If you have an ampersand (&) before anything, the validator will look for a corresponding entity, like &lt; or &gt;. So to solve that, use the entity for the ampersand, which is &amp;. Use that for every & in links and it'll solve those problems.

The issue is.. I didnt put that in the links. Only the stupid validator gets that. Its nowhere in the source.

Correction, it is in the srouce. My last post will help a bit, but the following should help a little more.http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.p...l-rewriter.tags

Yah, but FF source... and IE source dont show it. That article didnt really help. I have tried everything, but it still goes on:S.

My php.ini:

magic_quotes_gpc = no 

register_globals = off

session.use_trans_sid = 0

arg_separator.output = "&"

arg_separator.input = "&"

[rc69]

I copied that source directly from FF, so yes, it does show it.

I THINK that you'll notice if you refresh the page that the PHP session id is on, the big ugly sessid string will be gone... try to validate it then maybe?

Well, i don't know what's wrong with your browser, but it's in every link on my computer.
Do you have any cookies/admin features wrote in that affect sessions?

As it stands right now, you're beyond my help, i've given you everything i know of that deals with PHPSESSID.

Edit, just tested austens thingy, after refresh, the PHPSESSID is gone... This doesn't change my previous statement.

I understand. Everything that you have said though is what I have tried. That is the reason I am stumped:). Thanks for trying htough, I hope I can figure this out!

[HaloprO]

&PHPSESSID occures the first time a page is visited and when the session is started, so if you completely close out your browser and go back to your page, you will see it again, Validator will always find it because it doesn't store the session information.

[kazaru-kun]

so is there is no way to fix this? by the way for some reason when you use the validate function opera it doesn't show the session id and validates fine

Because opera is for fat people , I mean, what I posted earlier will work
