Weird letters added to URLs upon first visit.
Greetings
I'm having issues with joomla adding some weird letters to urls upon first visit with IE6 and IE7.
For example Ill have a link like this:
http://mywebsite.com/example-website
be turned into something like this:
http://mywebsite.com/example-website?ac ... a1e2c6fb67
is there anyway I can turn off that "?ac9a796026e807069c2683b221efb607=f1023cf6f0cbde6ebd8ce2a1e2c6fb67" part? It seems to be causing some trouble with some plugins I have.

What Joomla 1.5 version do you have? 1.5.3?
What 3rd party extensions did you install?

I did a search in the SQL database for the second half of the mystery string:
(ac9a796026e807069c2683b221efb607=f1023cf6f0cbde6ebd8ce2a1e2c6fb67)
and found that f1023cf6f0cbde6ebd8ce2a1e2c6fb67 corresponded to the session_id in the session table. Is it normal for joomla to do something like this? I also noticed it shows in firefox as well, not just in IE6 and IE7.
thanks

Re: Weird letters added to URLs upon first visit.
I think that it's not normal behaviour to have the session ID included in the URL.jguzman wrote:and found that f1023cf6f0cbde6ebd8ce2a1e2c6fb67 corresponded to the session_id in the session table.

Maybe the extension jfusion includes this session ID?

I will try to replicate this behavior in my test server. I found a thread here on this subject http://groups.google.com/group/joomla-d ... f73b6fef75 it seems it has already been addressed. I'll do some reading in the jfusion forum to see if this is a normal behavior of the plugin.
I'll let you know as soon as I find something more about this pe7er
Again, thanks for all the help.

I found out the source of the problem, it's my PHP.ini, there's some type of setting in it that is making joomla add the session_id to all my URLs. My webhosting provider gives me the option to put my own php.ini to overide the default one. By deleting/renaming my php.ini I was able to have joomla working well again. I'm not that knowledgeable with the PHP.ini , so maybe someone in the future that might be experiencing this same problem will be able to track down what exactly what setting might be causing this.
Thanks for all your help pe7er

insert this code:
ini_set('session.use_cookies', '1');
ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', '1'); // PHP >= 4.3
ini_set('session.use_trans_sid', '0');
ini_set('url_rewriter.tags', '');
into you session.php file (/plugins/system/legacy/) (just after <?php)
or insert :
php_flag session.use_trans_sid off
in your HTACCESS
On my site it works now (www.mess-land.be) and i've not this problem anymore... can somebody try this?

Re: Weird letters added to URLs upon first visit.
benske,
I tried the items in your post but they didn't seem to make any difference. I also tried entering the line in my htaccess file and that didn't work.
So I asked my host to provide my own php.ini file, and I changed:
session.use_trans_sid = 1
to
session.use_trans_sid = 0
and that did work.
