If you want to use sessions without using cookies, you should send
the session-ID to the next page using the URL (not a very nice
solution though).

See: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php

<quote from PHP manual>

The following example demonstrates how to register a variable, and how
to link correctly to another page using SID.

Example 3. Counting the number of hits of a single user

<?php
session_register ("count");
$count++;
?>

Hello visitor, you have seen this page <?php
echo $count; ?> times.<p>

<php?
# the <?=SID?> is necessary to preserve the
# session id
# in the case that the user has disabled
# cookies
?>

To continue, <A
HREF="nextpage.php?<?=SID?>">click here</A>

The <?=SID?> is not necessary, if --enable-trans-sid was used to
compile PHP.
