codeigniter session library and internet explorer - El Forum - 12-02-2011

There are a lot of threads talking about codeigniter session library problems. Specially, CI session library seems to have problems with IE.
But I add the line
session_start();
This line make CI session library works with the IE.
In theory, I don't think when we use CI session library, we would needs this line. But in practice, somehow, it solves the IE problem.
How does it work out? I don't know. Anyone can give me some advice or opinions about how it magically works? Thanks!
It seems that without session_start(), the IE seems cannot identify the CI sessionID cookie. But with this session_start(), the IE seems to identify the CI sessionID.
Thanks!

Just incase people searching threads come across this:
IE sessions might also fail if "cookie_domain" is not correctly set - especially if it is left blank. All other browsers will continue to work, but not IE.
