I don't know how to get around this, I've tried several methods.
When you create a session with a name, it will create a cookie with that name.
This cookie doesn't go away... so everything I do sesion_start it creates a new cookie with that name, eventually overloading the browser with this cookie to the point that sessions get messed up and my users have to clear their cookies.
Umm, yeah, it looks like if you use session_name, it doesn't overwrite the cookie once the session is re-instated. I stopped using session_name, and now PHPSESSID is the cookie name for life.
