Session variable is not running in Mozilla But running in IE

gagan22 · March 13, 2009

Hi All,

When I was testing my site in mozilla I got the following issue

I am setting session variable in my login1.php file and accessing it in hoa.php file.

this process is working properly in IE but in MOZILLA I am not able to get the value of session. and also not able to read the value set in the child window.

Please help me out for this issue.

Thanks.

Regards,

Gagan

At the end of hoa.php, you are executing session_unset(); session_destroy(); and $_SESSION = array();. This has the effect of logging the visitor out. FF has a nasty habit of requesting a page twice. I think it is requesting hoa.php the first time and the results are probably correct, but it is requesting it a second time and at that point the visitor is not logged in and you see the results of the second request without the queries matching no rows in the database.

Even though the visitor is not logged in for the second request, because the code on your page continues execution after the header() redirect, you could see the output from that page and in fact the header() redirect might not be executing or the sessions might not be starting on the hoa.php page.

Add the following two lines immediately after the first opening <?php tag on both pages -

ini_set ("display_errors", "1");
error_reporting(E_ALL);

Every header() redirect needs an exit() statement after it to prevent the remainder of the code on your page from executing while the browser is requesting the new page.

And is the code to log the visitor out at the end of the hoa.php page supposed to be executed every time that page is requested or is it only supposed to be executed when the logout link is clicked?
