Well I m having strange problem here. I have a codeigniter 2 web application which requires user login.

My session works perfectly when I jump from one page to another. But when I turn on Firebug and try to jump to another page, i m kicked back to login page.

This happens always everytime I turn firebug on, but works okay if its not turned on. I have no clue whats going around.

Why Codeigniter session is not working when Firebug is turned on?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Edit:

I have two separate applications made with Codeigniter. Both have same issue.

P.S. I am facing this problem in my local machine, haven’t checked in remote server.

Thanks,
Sabin

    if you have the session filtering by user agent that’s the problem. firebug adds additional stuff which can cause CI to think your session has been hijacked.

    if you have firebug on globally, you may notice some sites tell you to disable the plugin for their site(for example gmail) for that very reason.
