My mistake -- I meant $_COOKIE, specifically $_COOKIE['PHPSESSID']. 
That's the cookie that connects a browser session to the proper 
$_SESSION variable.  When you work with $_SESSION directly you don't see 
the ID.  If you view cookies in your browser you'll see it.

No, they get assigned it when you first use $_SESSION.

Yes, logging out clears it, and then the next use of $_SESSION assigns a 
new one.  Besides that I don't know of anything in PmWiki that does it, 
but I haven't been watching very closely so I could be wrong!  --Ben
