Please note that I'm just installing the application, as it has been
created by a separate firm.

My original text might have given the impression that we wrote it.

Description:
------------
This bug is (apparently) specific to Solaris.
It cannot be replicated on our test CentOS machine.
This is not the usual variation of "somebody not understanding how
sessions work in a frameset"

We have an e-learning application, called Dokeos (www.dokeos.com),
which has a tool using framesets containing a set of frames, each
pointing to a separate php file.
All php files share the same session (which is rather large in terms of
saved content) across the frames.
The application behaves unpredictably: some frames load correctly, some
load the content of other frames, some remain white.
On refresh of the main frameset page, every frame misbehaves in a
different way, so contents move around.
Even refreshing individual frames keeps failing miserably. 
Basically, let's say that the frameset frameset.php calls files 1.php
through file 6.php.
The frame containing 2.php, upon first opening of the frameset and upon
refresh, can contain the output of anything from 1.php to 6.php to the
frameset.php itself, and even other pages which were browsed earlier on
the same server.

The problem is cross-browser, is not caused by Javascript (it happens
when JS is blocked at browser level), and cannot be caused by wrong
header() calls in the PHP code, since at least some of the files do not
have any header() call anywhere, and still the system returns another
file in their place.

The same application (the same files, the same database, the same
content) works just fine on our CentOS server, with the same version of
PHP but Apache 1.3.41.

Any help? Any suggestions?
