The following code:

ini_set("session.use_cookies", "0");
session_name("Session");
session_start();

Does not seem to work any more (cookie is generated and carried by the browser), it did work before (using PHP 4.0.6). Any ideas?

Cheers,

Michiel

I have confirmed it to work using PHP 4.1.1 (same OS) as well.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/.
In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Meaning it was fixed after 00:00 on 26th of July (last night)? I'm running the snapshot of that date (http://snaps.php.net/php4-200207260000.tar.bz2), and the bug is still present there.

Regards,

Michiel

I can not reproduce this with 4.3.0-dev..
Try this script instead:

<?php

ini_set("session.use_cookies", "0");
session_name("Session");
session_start();

var_dump($_COOKIE);

?>

Reload it couple of times. For me, the $_COOKIE array
remains empty. If I comment out the ini_set() line,
then the cookie will be set.

*slaps self*

It does work, there was a little tiny bit that didn't include the ini_set() part and caused the havoc on the rest of the pages. Thanks for the help though!
