$_SESSION not available when using jqUploader
<p>I am using PHP and jQuery for an uploader. I am having a huge problem though and would like some input as to how best handle these two together.</p>

<p>I am using a PHP session variable that I am using to change the filename after the jquery uploader has finished. The jquery "url" is pointing to a PHP function that handles the actual upload. When I use the jquery uploader to upload an image, the session variable is never available. I'm assuming because the uploader itself is not using a session.</p>

<p>How can I resolve this issue? I need to have that session variable to change the filename.</p>

<p><strong>EDIT: I am using jqUploader</strong></p>

<p>Here is the code</p>

<pre><code>function jqUploadPhoto( ){
    $picSize = '50550500';
    $picDir  = '/photos';

    $temp = $_FILES['uploadfile']['name'];
    ... substr()... convert old name to new name

    $file = $_SESSION['name'].$ext; // This is set and can be echoed when this func is used from a browser. Not available in JQ

    if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadfile']['tmp_name'], $file) == false){ // This dies because the filename isn't available.
      echo 'NOTOK';
    }

}
</code></pre>
