ie8 losing session data
I have a 4 page form where I post some variables to session on first step and echo on 2, 3 and 4. This works perfectly in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. IE8 loses the session data after step 2 for some reason. Any ideas? I am running 2 php apps on apache.

Might be related to the code anyway. Could you show it ?

Thanks for looking...here is step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Now that i think about it...IE may not be storing any session data at all since going from step 1 to 2 may be just posting to the matching form fields.
<?php
session_start();
?>

</table>Now that i think about it...IE may not be storing any session data at all since going from step 1 to 2 may be just posting to the matching form fields.
I answered a question about this recently and the solution was that IE is very fussy about non-standard characters in URLs. Check if you have something like an underscore (_) in your URL.
I'll see if I can dig out the earlier question.

OK _ dug out the post and it was more related to HTML5 and IE problems, but one thing did stand out - check the time on the server. IE is sensitive to the server's time and this can wind up expiring the cookie used to hold the session id. The other browsers are not sensitive to the server's time.

Time on the server is good. Is the underscore thing just about urls? I do have a variable I am trying to save that has an underscore (primary_email). I am struggling to find a way to replace that field name in my forms since it is dynamically generated. Step 1 posts to 2 , which is the dynamic form and the email field is hidden, since it was entered before.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Thanks for that...and to update, I tried just a simple form script to test without all my other stuff and it works fine in IE. So I guess there is something going on in the pages or the applications somewhere. I will do some trial and error and post back if anything happens.
That gives us something to narrow it down with. Back later.
ASKER
Found the problem...it was the form button on step 1..I was using type="image" instead of type="submit"
IE apparently objects to this...changed it and now it works great.
Thanks for the great info regardless and helping me work through this, I know it will save me some time in the future.

Another IE 'gotcha' is the <button> tag. The other browsers will let you have as many <button></button> tags as you like but IE treats them all as the same button - press any one and they ALL "turn on". That one drove me nuts for quite a while.
If you need a graphical button then look at using HTML areas and maps. Basically output the image in a IMG tag and then define it as a MAP and then define clickable areas within the map. See this example http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_area.asp
Sorry I wasn't able to help more. I had intended to look at it after work but life intervened.......
