[chora] session handling

[David Mendenhall]

Session files are being written to the temp dir (lots, in fact, one for
every link click). I notice that if I call Horde::url, there is a variable
Horde=5603e87570752d896bca4c8ba8c6149c (or whatever session_id), but if I
call Chora::url, I don't get that. Is the session only persistent if I pass
around that variable? I'm guessing that since I'm not in a
http:/hostname/horde/chora subfolder, I'm somehow bypassing or confusing the
session registration?

We use native PHP4 session handling ... try out the horde/test.php
and make sure that your basic session functionality is working.

If it isn't, then start figuring out why (is php successfully
writing out the session files to the tmp dir?)
