PHP session doesn't work with IE

Question

I have a site made with php which uses server side sessions throughout the site.
In fact, it\'s a site with a user login which depends on session variables and if there

Answer 1

Check the name of the server machine. IE has problems with machine names that contain '-' or '_' - they cannot maintain a session! I've had this problem twice in the past, and it always takes me weeks to figure out, and I'm shocked IE hasn't fixed it.

Just rename the machine to have no strange characters! You can get it working if you just use the IP address of the server in the url to test.
