Description:
------------
Reloading a page that saves a variable in a session, restarts and produce a new session variable, loosing the old one.
This problem was solved marvelously with version 4.3.4 and came back with the newer versions.

There is an other problem with conjunction with cookies and sessions in php.ini file.
It is clear that cookies that are saved on the server are sessions but whenever the variable session.use_cookies=0
no sessions are saved! and if session.use_cookies=1
sessions are saved correctly but must also be saved as cookies on the client side, meaning that in order to use sessions, the client is forced to enable cookies which is not necessary.

You've either installed PHP wrong or misconfigured it.
Properly installed and configured PHP + Apache works just fine.

Well, I'm no hobby programmer. I'm a professional programmer who gets paid for his work.
I have also an Apache server and tested with Apache too but with windows server no way!
I have about 2000 visitors a day and if something doesn't work I get it right away and specially all that works with sessions.
