In a Older post you mentioned that phpdig does not use session_start, any suggestion how to get rid of this text then on my pages that say:

Warning: session_start : The session id contains invalid characters, valid characters are only a-z, A-Z and 0-9 in

I want to use sessions but is there a better way to do this?

Was able to get it working

In case anyone runs into this problem, I was able to get this work by by putting the session_start in a if statement based on the useragent. I got the code from this link below and below that is the code I used.

exclude sessions

PHP Code:


		
			
$spiders = array("Googlebot","WebCrawler","Slurp","Fast","Scooter","Fluid","Zeal","Wget","archiver","ZyBorg ","Mantra","MSN","scrub","Teoma","Jeeves","msnbot","phpdig");





foreach($spiders as $Val) 

{ 

if (eregi($Val, $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_USER_AGENT'])) 

{ 

 $spider_count++; 

} 

} 

if ($spider_count == "0") { 



session_start();

}





}
