Lost session

[eluser]Moiz[/eluser]
Prehaps i can trow some light on this topic. I have encountered a similar problem with sessions. To explain is more : In the config file

Code:

$config['sess_use_database']    = TURE;

Now try to use IE 7.0 ( or any other version )

try to set some session value... example :

Code:

$this->session->userdata(array('logged_in'=>TRUE,'UID'=>'1'));

Browser through pages in your website and you will notice that the values of Logged_in and UID are not set. Also Notice in your database ( since you are using database for session tracking ) you will notice multiple entries of session id with the same IP address and ofcoz some will have session variables, while others don't.

this is happening in IE only so far. On the other hand - tracking the session via Cookies does not have this problem.

Also it is possible that my ISP does not assign static IP's to users logged in to the Internet, my IP address changes randomly and the value of HTTP_X_FORWARDED also does not remain constant... could that be causing this problem. ??
