Description:
------------
Im trying to make a login page passing session data to remember the login details. I know that the code works as it was on another PC working fine. But the seesions are not kept and fall over. i have a front form which posts the name and ID. It is checked with a MYSQL DB and made into a session.

Reproduce code:
---------------
session_start();
	$_SESSION["name"] = $UserDetails["Name"];
	$_SESSION["userid"] = $UserDetails["UserID"];
	header ("Location: login.php");

Expected result:
----------------
The session data is then passed on the login.php
i can then use name and user id to give access to site. 

Actual result:
--------------
but when i use print_r($_SESSION) it does not display the session information.

I have found out by further testing that this is not a php issue. I found out that my Firewall was blocking the use of sessions. If i moved to more than one php page the session data would be lost due to the firewall.

Firewall issue -> not PHP bug -> bogus bug report.
