[Xerte-dev] Re: session issue + example_zipper issue

You'd see that if you haven't logged in.

Specifically, $_SESSION doesn't contain the key : toolkits_logon_id


So ... could you put a :

var_dump($_SESSION);

in the /edit.php file - just above / before :

     die("Session ID not set");

(which is nearly at the bottom of it)

What does it output now?

thanks
David.
