The only requirement for this to work on your web pages is that you have PHP in your hosting. IF you don't have php, you can signup with www.webune.com for a php plan. if you have php, continue on...
The function to show a user's phpsession id is : $PHPSESSID
I wrote this short script to show you how it works:
steps: copy and paste this code into your editor or a text editor(like notepad):
Code:
<?php
session_start();
?>
<?php
session_start();
?>

<HEAD>
<?
if(isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["users_resolution"]))
$screen_resolution = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["users_resolution"];
else //means cookie is not found set it using Javascript
{
?>
<script language="javascript">
<!--
writeCookie();
function writeCookie()
{
var today = new Date();
var the_date = new Date("December 31, 2010");
var the_cookie_date = the_date.toGMTString();
var the_cookie = "users_resolution="+ screen.width +"x"+ screen.height;
var the_cookie = the_cookie + ";expires=" + the_cookie_date;
document.cookie=the_cookie
location = 'resolution.php';
}
//-->
</script>
<?

Save this file as wallpaperama-sessionid.php and uploaded to your Apache/ PHP server and open it with your browser
(example: yourdomain.com/wallpaperama-sessionid.php), then it will display your own php sessionid as a demostration.
Thanks to our friends at www.webune.com, they have provide PHP hosting to show you a demo of how this script works:
