set SessionID (PLEASE HELP)

Hi,

I have to set the sessionID manually - how to do it???
I want to extract the sessionID from an encoded POST- or GET-variable, and want my session to bind to it!!!

Howdy,
The sessionID is an internal identifier assigned and used by the 
web server (typically).  Maybe you want to consider using your own
session variable with a different name, that you can assign and control 
manually?  It would be your responsibility to guarantee uniqueness, 
but that's usually not a big hassle, and the flexibility is worth it.
