Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.session-id#Parameters
---
in documentation is written that session_id() with parameters must be written before session_start(), but in this method when i do session_start() id is changed. For fixed this bug I write session_id after session_start(9 and all run correctly.


Test script:
---------------
firtst method:
session_id(exaple_session_id)
session_start()

second method:
session_start()
session_id(exaple_session_id)

You are claiming that calling session_id(exaple_session_id) changed session ID, but this is exactly the purpose of this function. In normal cases, calling session_id(exaple_session_id) after session_start() is equivalent to not calling this function at all, since the session that ID is another than exaple_session_id has been already started.

If you call session_id(), or any session function that has to change information 
in the headers, after you call session_start(), the change will not occur, and 
may cause unwanted behaviour, due to, say, the session ID stored server-side not 
being the one that was sent to the client.
