What I was looking for was a way in which you would force the session module to resend the same cookie to a user that their browser just sent us, however the expire time field would be a updated (incremented, decremented). example: if a new session (first visit) then set session.lifetime to Now + 30 minutes that way the browser will clear out the session cookie for us in 30 minutes. However if the user is active on the site and visits before the 30 minutes are up i would like to instruct the session module to send them their session cookie again but with now + 30 minutes, thus prolonging the lifetime of their session with each request. maybe i missed the function of ini setting that allows this? If it is already available directly or indirectly then I apologize. Thanks, -ab
