RE: log in script kicks me out

I have attempted to use session_write_close() but it makes no
difference. Thanks for your help.

Any other ideas I might be be able to try?

Upon doing a quick search using something like "$_SESSION second time" I
see that there are a number of others who seem to have similar problems,
and no solutions.

Use session_write_close() before your header() redirection.

I couldn't see in your messages what PHP version you are using. Any chance
to upgrade to 4.3.8?
