    Ok so this is something that I’ve been messing with on and off for a week now trying to get it fixed and I think I finally got it, but since I had trouble finding a solution here I figured I’d post what I found.

    I have Frontpage-Slideshow 0.9.9.3.4 installed and was experiencing the problem reported elsewhere of the slideshow not loading the first time the page is visited, but it working fine on refresh. For me at least this turned out to be an issue with PHPSESSID according to the errors I was receiving. I check the php.ini file and the two options,

    session.use_only_cookies 1
session.use_trans_sid 0

    were both set as needed above. After some poking around I found this third option

    session.url_rewriter.tags "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry,fieldset="

    This value, tells the server what types of tags to apply the PHPSESSID to. I set it to a blank string, like this;

    session.url_rewriter.tags ""

    It seems to be working fine now after some quick testing. I hope this helps some other people dealing with this same hassle.
