Hi. I am running the $session->isLoggedIn() script on my localhost. I have successfully been able to run this script outside of magento on a linux server, however on my Windows localhost, a new session is started when i attempt to run this script. Any idea on how I can make these Session Id’s match up?

Hi, first thanks for this blog! Now regarding this solution (for including Ajax), though I can see what you’re getting at, I still can’t figure out what code goes into what file. Could you explain a bit further regarding that? Thanks a lot!!
(Just for the record, I alredy created some of my own custom modules, so I’m not a complete novice)

@JAMES

You just saved me a ton of head scratching.

Found it.
Th secret to reinitializing the logged-in user’s session is to first instantiate ‘core/session’ and THEN ‘customer/session’.
So the magic lines to make the lest example work is:
. . .
Mage::getSingleton(’core/session’, array(’name’=>’frontend’));
$session = Mage::getSingleton(’customer/session’, array(’name’=>’frontend’));
[/quote]

Without the core/session the code below does not work and was Killing Me !!!

THANKS!
