    copied!<p>I have a CI application that uses the CI session class. Here's the process I'm having trouble with:</p> <ol> <li>Users loads page</li> <li>Ajax request to get record from DB</li> <li>Set userdata variable with that record's ID &amp; do various DB stuff</li> <li>User refreshes the page</li> <li>Ajax request to get record from DB based on the session variable of the previous record (same record can not be passed back twice in a row)</li> <li>re-set userdata variable to new record's ID</li> </ol> <p>etc. etc.</p> <p>This works perfectly in chrome and FF. But obviously when I come to test in IE - doesn't work. </p> <p>The ajax request is executed and the first record is retreived. At this point the session variable has been set. User refreshes but the same record remains. </p> <p>At this point if I clear session cookies and refresh the new record is retrieved.</p> <p>I've tried changing:</p> <pre><code>$config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'ci_session'; </code></pre> <p>to</p> <pre><code>$config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'cisession'; </code></pre> <p>Like I saw in another post but no luck. Also tried using DB for session storage but still no luck.</p> <p>Here is the problem page: <a href="http://givestream.co.uk/stream" rel="nofollow">http://givestream.co.uk/stream</a></p> <p>Load this in chrome or FF and either refresh or hit the 'Next' button and you'll see it retrieves a new charity. Try this in IE and it doesn't work unless you clear session cookies.</p> <p>JS function to get record:</p> <pre><code>function get_matches(){ var charity; var user_total; jQuery.get("/stream/get_charity/", function(data){ charity = data.charity; user_total = charity.user_totals; /** CHANGE URL **/ if (history.pushState) { window.history.pushState("object or string", "Title", "/stream/"+charity.slug); } /*****************/ // can user accept? if(charity.can_donate == 0){ // No jQuery('.alert-message').show(); } else{ jQuery('.alert-message').hide(); } // Charity Binding jQuery('p#char_modal_description').html(charity.description); jQuery('.char_more_link').attr('id', charity.id); jQuery('h1#char_name').html(charity.char_name); jQuery('h2#char_modal_header').html(charity.char_name); jQuery('p#char_desc').html(charity.description); jQuery('#website').html('&lt;label&gt;Website&lt;/label&gt;&lt;a href="'+charity.website+'" style="color:#08C;" target="_blank"&gt;'+charity.website+'&lt;/a&gt;'); jQuery('#char_total').text('\u00A3'+charity.total); jQuery('#donors').html(charity.recent_donors); jQuery('#fans').html(charity.recent_fans); if (typeof user_total !== 'undefined') { jQuery('#total_char_month').text('\u00A3'+user_total.total_char_month); jQuery('#total_char_alltime').text('\u00A3'+user_total.total_char_alltime); var has_user_seen_stream_notice = user_total.has_user_seen_stream_notice; if(has_user_seen_stream_notice == false){ jQuery('#stream_help').show(); } } else{ jQuery('#total_char_month').text('\u00A3'+0); jQuery('#total_char_alltime').text('\u00A3'+0); } /** TWITTER SHARE BUTTON CHANGE URL **/ var twitter = '&lt;a href="https://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-url="http://givestream.co.uk/stream/'+charity.slug+'" data-via="givestreamuk" data-hashtags="socialgiving"&gt;Tweet&lt;/a&gt;'; jQuery('#twitter_share').html(twitter); var jstext = '!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");'; var script = document.createElement("script"); script.type = "text/javascript"; script.text = jstext; jQuery('#twitter_share').append(script); // *************************************// /** FACEBOOK SHARE WIDGET **/ var fb = '&lt;iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http://givestream.co.uk/stream/'+charity.slug+'&amp;amp;send=false&amp;amp;layout=standard&amp;amp;width=280&amp;amp;show_faces=false&amp;amp;action=like&amp;amp;colorscheme=light&amp;amp;font&amp;amp;height=35&amp;amp;appId=119083868224729" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:280px; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;'; jQuery('#fb_share').html(fb); // ***********************// jQuery('#char_website').html(charity.website); jQuery('#sectors').html('&lt;label&gt;Tags&lt;/label&gt;'+charity.sectors); jQuery('#permalink').val('http://givestre.am/stream/'+charity.slug); jQuery('#refresh').activity(false); get_charity_gallery(); get_charity_shouts(); }, 'json'); return; } </code></pre>
