Re: [Phplib-users] phplib and IE 6 authentication not working

Many thanks for the reply.

I have done some more digging and found that IE6 implements the P3P privacy policy:

http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/1539

"MSIE 6 has an inaccurate definition of third party cookies. If your domain is hosted on one server and your PHP stuff is on another, the IE6 P3P implementation considers any cookies sent from the second machine "third party". Third party cookies will be blocked automatically in most privacy settings if not accompanied by what MS considers "an appropriate Compact Policy". 

This appears to break the cookies and so breaks the sessions.  The page suggests adding a header immediately before the cookie, ie:

header('P3P: CP="NOI ADM DEV PSAi COM NAV OUR OTRo STP IND DEM"'); 

Does any one have any thoughts on where best to put this?  Presumably in session4.inc?  Or would it be better in the page itself?

Many thanks

Paul
