    [PHP]<?php echo session_id(); ?>[/PHP]If you get a session id without running session_start(), trans-sid is on.

    Thanks . . .

    I don't get the session id . . .

    is the only option is to reinstall my PHP ?
    is there any other way to turn it on ?
    is it better to set it manually ?

    - If you mean recompile, then sure. Reinstalling binary packages won't make any difference.

    - Been a while since I used it, so I don't know if it can be enabled at runtime these days; check the docs, that's what they're there for.

    - Depends on what you're running on the server. If there's dozens of sites, only one of which actually needs to use PHP sessions, then it's a waste of resources. Portability is another factor.

    Thanks . . .

    It worked now . . . I used this instead .

    <?php
    session_start();
    $_SESSION = 'wicklow1';
    ?>
