If I have a test script (session.php)
<?php
session_start();
if (empty($_SESSION['count'])) $_SESSION['count'] = 0;
$_SESSION['count']++;

echo "Counter: ".($_SESSION['count']);
?>
And I go http://www.myserver.net/session.php in Mozilla 1.0, either I will get a dialog telling me that the document contains no data or, aboslutely nothing will happen.

It seems the browser is being sent a cookie, afterwards, it seems like the response just... disappears.

Changing error reporting to e_all, and adding output buffering does not change anything.

There is nothing in the apache error or request logs to suggest anything is amiss

Internet Explorer 6.0 and Netscape 4.7 all display pages as expected.

Getting the seseion ID from the cookie that mozilla is sent, and than displaying that session file (on the server) shows the php script is being executed.

Server:  Debian Woody, with Apache 1.3.26, PHP CVS on i386 
Client:  Windows NT SP 6a, Mozilla 1.0 (Build ID: 2002053012)

php configure line:

./configure' '--with-srm=/usr/local/srm' '--with-layout=GNU' '--disable-static' '--with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs' '--disable-cli' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/php4/apache' '--enable-memory-limit' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-exif' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-gd=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib=/usr' '--with-curl' '--with-exif' '--enable-sockets'

Are you using the CGI version of PHP? Then this might have been fixed in CVS ten minutes ago. Can you try the latest CVS, or a snapshot from http://snaps.php.net (the fix didn't make it into 200207040000, so please wait until a next snapshot has been packed).

I am using the apache module, with the cvs as of (roughly) 4:00 am.. so it was the latest cvs ;)

After further tesing, it seems this is not a PHP bug, but rather, a Mzilla bug.

So now what?
Does anybody know of a workaround?
I want to be able to give Mozilla-users a session. ;-)

I am not sure wether to post this to PHP or Mozilla gang, but I found out that AFTER you delete the (first) session in Mozilla by hand, things seems to work fine.
It's just like the session.expires isn't implemented right for "end of session" or 0.

I use Mozilla-1.4 on Windows-98.
I've written a simple script:
 <?php
  session_start();
  $_SESSION['Text']='Some text';
  echo $_SESSION['Text'];
 ?>
On one server (FreeBSD,Apache,PHP-4.22 as CGI) it works as expected both in IE and Mozilla.
On another server (Linux, Apache 1.3.27, PHP-4.32 as Apache module) Mozilla does not display output, actually it refuses to transfer it from the server.
I reported the bug at Mozilla's site (bug #214921), but it seems nobody knows yet what causes the problem - Mozilla, Apache, PHP or Linux.
Does anybody know the solution?
