As the browser cookies use a different mechanism for storing 
and retrieving cookies independently of PHP, I cannot see 
how browser cookies can be clashing with your PHP session_id
cookies.

If you use a pre-built PHP application that also uses PHP 
session_id's, then that can cause a problem with your own 
website if that also wants to use PHP session_id cookies.

I had this problem with one of my websites. Not sure how to 
work around this one yet.

I guess the obvious way would for PHP session_id's to allow 
multiple session_id_name(s), so each PHP application can 
choose it's own session_id to be know by. This would also 
imply that PHP has the capability to pass those multiple 
session_id's between the respective PHP applications that 
are running side by side on the same website. Maybe this is 
in the pipeline for a future release of PHP, or has it 
already been implemented?

Kind Regards,
