Google Chrome Session Issues Found
I was wondering why I was having session and cookie issues with Google Chrome browser where I would log into an application but my session would be incomplete or lost immediately and force me to login again. I experienced all sorts of odd cache and session like behavior, when I used Google Chrome to delete all Clear All Browsing Data the problem would go away for a while but would then resurface a few days later.
Then it hit me one time, Fcleaner which is a fantastic tool to cleanup your system from downloads, cached files, internet explorer and firefox cache and such somehow messes up Google Chrome, instead of cleanly clearing all of Google Chrome’s stuff it somehow interferes with (probably removing some but not enough) and Google Chrome just freaks out and behaves improperly until you actually clear all browser data through Chrome itself.
This leads me to believe that probably many other system cleaners out there which do the same thing probably have the same issue with Google Chrome until the software’s are updated to properly clean out Google Chrome data as well as Internet Explorer, Windows and Firefox data. So I am back in browsing bliss with Google Chrome again which still holds top speed over Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera on my desktop, it can open most sites slightly faster but where Google Chrome really shines is try performing this test.
Create a bookmark folder with 30 web pages, open All Pages in folder in new tabs at same time. Right click on folder in Firefox and say Open All in Tabs, do the equivalent on Google Chrome. Chrome will have all 30 tabs opened and completely loaded in less time than it takes firefox to load 1/2 of the pages. I have performed this test numerous times and Chrome wins hands down even with a stripped NO Add-On version of Firefox, that is fully tweaked with about:config settings based on all the latest guides for http pipelining, caching and such.

I don't know if this s a version specific or browser wide, But chrome is apparently not holding php session vars as it should.
Example I set a session maker to call a certain style based on a passed in var at home page, this works.
But as soon as choose a link that opens a different page, chrome drops the session var and the CSS skin switches to default!
PS: This same method has been working with IE Safari and Firefox for over 2 years now....
Developers of Web Browsers, ALL (Chrome Included) need to get on the same page. This display of greed and control has gone on long enough!
The world needs a web browser that adheres to and is compliant with 100% ALL of the w3c accepted standards instead of inventing your own ways of doing things in order to trap customer loyalty.
