The sessions on https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_sessions.asp are suddenly not working on Chrome, Firefox and Opera?

Hello. The sessions on https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_sessions.asp are suddenly not working on Chrome, Firefox  and Opera?

Other examples do: https://www.section.io/engineering-education/getting-started-with-php-sessions/

Any suggestions? ... or even better any feedback/call-to-action from developers on the tutorial pages? //br

The code looks correct and it is working properly in Firefox on my device.

I first opened this page to write values to the session:

https://tryphp.w3schools.com/showphp.php?filename=demo_session1

Then I opened this page and can see the correct values:

https://tryphp.w3schools.com/showphp.php?filename=demo_session2

If the problem is happening with the code on your web server then show your code here and maybe I can find out why it's not working.

Googled something about servers being the problem - cannot see what else it should be

(below: the untouched code >> no results) ... and yes, did the exact same as you (had same problem on my phone, that even roamed/mobile data)

There are only two possible scenarios where the variables are not displayed on that page:

1. You haven't yet visited the page that gives the variables a value.
2. Your browser is blocking the session cookie.

If you use private mode in your browsers, that might be the reason that cookies are being blocked.
