[mythtv-users] MythWeb - sessions problem

I've been having this problem for a while, but only recently found out what 
the problem was.

I've been trying to configure mythweb to display the short day format (e.g. 
Mon, Tue, Wed, etc etc) in it's display, but whenever I add %a to the list 
of display variables, I always lose the setting after I refresh the page.

Well, it seems that every single time I refresh the page a new session gets 
initted - each hit on F5 will generate a new session file in php_sessions, 
with all of the default settings and without my %a. Does anyone know why 
this might be? I'm not a big expert on how sessions work and how mythweb 
handles them - I've spent about an hour trying to figure out the code, but 
so far no dice, as my PHP knowledge is rather limited. I've also tried in 
vain to find out where the default session data/configuration is stored 
(all those includes!) in the hope of editing it manually and avoiding 
having to sort out the session thing, but again no joy...!

Anyone have an idea what's up?
