Session Wont Set in IE7
Date:	05/12/2008	Severity:	Major
Status:	Unconfirmed	Reporter:	Popcorn
Version:	1.6.1
Keywords:	Libraries, Session Class

Description

A session variable wont be set with IE7 if the session cookie name has an underscore in it.

This is a strange bug, at first I was thought to of believed it was a server side issue (clock out of sync). The tech support however did a test and it worked fine for them.

There are different results from different people. Hmmm

Code Sample

function login ($email, $password)
    {
        $result = $this->_get_hash($this->users_table, $email); // Grab hash, password, and id from database.

        if ($result) // Result Found
        {
            $password = sha1(sha1($this->salt.$result->hash.$password)); // Hash input password

            if ($password === $result->password) // Passwords match?
            {
                $this->ci->session->set_userdata(array('id'=> $result->id));

                return true;
            }
        }
        
        return false;
    }

Then I check the login like so : 

function logged_in ()
    {
        return $var = ($this->ci->session->userdata('id')) ? true : false;
    }

Expected Result

bool(true)

Actual Result

bool(false) IE7
bool(true) FF
