I'm trying debug phplib on WinNT w/Apache 1.3.9 & php 3.0.11. I put all my phplib test pages
in a virtualhost subdirectory.

I ran through each test described in the Quick Start guide: Checking PHPLIB inclusion &
Checking database connectivity worked fine. I can log in a "Kris, Test" just fine, Checking that
sessions work is another matter. The sessions do not appear to increment at each reload. But
there's something slightly strange going on because once in a while I'll go back to the page and
it will have incremented from 1 to 7--the number of times I actually attempted to reload
beforehand.

Other strange things happen. The first time I bring up index.php3, the brower's header shows:
http://myvirtual.site.com/index.php3?Example_Session=48324821e4a09029df53b130b48e3764

If I hit reload, no incrementing occurs. However, if I remove one digit from the SID (i.e., change
the URL after the "?" in some way) before reloading then the session stat will increment each
and every time.

Also, I'll display phpinfo() using the link provided in the page. On that page is a link to
supposedly load the Simple page again. Doing so however, provides the URL :
            http://myvirtual.site.com/index.php3
without the "?Example_Session=48324821e4a09029df53b130b48e3764" attached to it.

These same results occur with Netscape 4.5, 4.61 and IE 4. It appears to me that there's some
sort of caching going on that simply refreshes the page rather than executing the code to
increment the session stat. Can anyone provide for additional debugging steps?
