Re: Re: $_Session vs $_Cookie

Hi Sukanto, I'm glad I'm not alone. :o) I'm working on an intranet, thus i can ask my staff to enable their cookies.. but this is really not the best way. Right now, I am trying to convert all my sessions to cookies because this is a faster solution to solve my urgent problem. But I think as recommended by Torsten and the others, maybe we should use the database to save our sessions.. I do not have time to explore the PEAR packages but they look like a good long-term solution. By the way, do you use VPN?
