Code Igniter Session problem

[quote author="Jim Higgins" date="1217644738"]This thread is old, but I spent the day trying to solve this so I thought I would share what worked for me. Here was my situation...

On my dev environment (XAMPP), all sessions worked fine in FF and IE. As soon as I moved to production, IE7 would not delete a session key I was using. The most common solution I found in these threads was to make sure your server time/date was correct. Mine was correct and it was still not working in IE.

So, I then moved over to using the Native Sessions library from the Wiki (http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Native_session/). This did the trick for the most part with a couple of different additions. Right before I reset the session data in my application code, I needed to unset any existing key with that same value...

$this->session->unset_userdata(array('my_key' => ''));

Lastly, when I moved to the Native Sessions library, I had to change a call in my logout function from sess_destroy() to destroy(). This seemed to be the only inconsistency between using Native Sessions and CodeIgniter's session (for me at least).

The Native Sessions library is one file that just gets dropped into application/libraries

Aside form the destroy(), you load it and call everything the same as the CI Session class.[/quote]

Thanks for sharing your experience and the Native Session link, it helped me a lot
