This is just a thought - do they have cookies disabled?  Even though
sessions take place server-side, it still requires the use of a cookie
on the client unless you pass everything in the url (most likely
utilizes the url rewrite option of php).

Subject: Session ID

Hi guys,

I have a question for you.  It seems as if one of the schools that are
using
www.SchoolPad.net (a site we designed last year and are updating now) is
experiencing a situation that, for some reason, is NOT assigning them a
PHPSESSIONID.  Since the webadmin/index.php script checks for the
existence
of a PHPSESSIONID and gives them an "error" page otherwise, this is a
problem.  Since this is a security check, I really would like to keep
this
feature in place (Or as an option replace it with something equally
effective, although I really don't want to go that route because I want
it
to be server side, not client side).

I am verifying this, but it seems as if this is the only school that is
experiencing this, and it does not matter which computer on their
network is
being used, which leads me to believe that it is an issue with network
security settings.  Is there anything that anyone is aware of that could
be
causing this?

Thanks,
Keith D Sellars
