Having a weird problem, session not being stored when doing ajax requests from js (localhost).
I have created an simple demo that I expected to work, but session is never being stored. However if I access the php script directly from my webbrowser it works as expected and stores session.
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<script src="js/jquery-1.8.0.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$.ajax({
dataType: 'json',
url: 'http://example.com/test.php',
method: 'GET',
success: function(response) {
console.log(response);
},
error: function(error) {
console.log(error);
}
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
PHP:
<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
/* Session start */
session_start();
/* Set headers */
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header('Content-Type: application/json');
if (!isset($_SESSION['test'])) {
$_SESSION['test'] = 'abc';
$result = 'session_set';
} else {
$result = $_SESSION['test'];
}
echo json_encode(array('result' => $result));
?>
