Hi,
What is the best way of creating a unique session Id. I am creating a shopping cart but on that shopping cart user dont have to get register to buy anything so ther is no user name.
Thanks

You could just use the PHP session id itself.

if you are going to use session just make sure the user accepts them first then do the cart thing.
set a session, then try to read it back.

Sorry, I can't quite follow your logic. When PHP starts a session, as aborint mentions, it automatically creates a unique session ID. See
http://www.php.net/session and
session_start()
