The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

PHPSESSID Session Cookie Doesn't Stick for more than 1 page

Asked by gr8gonzo in PHP Scripting Language, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Secure Socket Layer (SSL) & HTTPS

Tags: , , ,

I have a web page on www.domain1.com, with an iframe that opens up a PHP-based site on www.domain2.com.

When the application in D2 (www.domain2.com) loads, it issues a PHP session cookie (PHPSESSID) and correctly loads the rest of the page (images, external css, javascript, etc). If I watch the HTTP headers, I can see that the first request got a PHPSESSID cookie, and it persists while the rest of the page is loading.

However, once I click on another link that takes me to another page inside the same application, the PHPSESSID seems to disappear, and it prompts me to log into the application again (issuing a different PHPSESSID cookie).

This happens every time I click to change a page.

When I access www.domain2.com directly (no IFRAME), the application works fine. I can login and browse through mulitple pages without any problem.

If I go into my cookie settings and accept all cookies for D2, then the application ALSO works fine. However, I don't want to force all our users to change their browser settings, and I do not have control over D1, so it HAS to be through an IFRAME.

This USED to work fine, too. We had an outside programmer working on an upgraded version of the application, and it seemed like after he made some "upgrades" this problem started happening. Now I'm trying to clean up the mess (he has no idea what he changed and suggests buying and adding a security certificate, which doesn't work when I test it using a self-signed cert).Start Free Trial
