What is the significance of passing the session ID when cookies are disabled?

When cookies are disabled, the session ID needs to be passed through the URL or form parameters to maintain session state between requests. This is important because without cookies, the server cannot identify which session corresponds to which user. By passing the session ID in the URL or form parameters, the server can still associate subsequent requests with the correct session data. 

<?php
session_start();

// Check if session ID is passed in the URL or form parameters
if(isset($_GET['session_id'])) {
    session_id($_GET['session_id']);
}

// Continue with session handling and application logic
?>
