If it is set in the current context, we use the content of it as session id, otherwise we create a new session id and send out a Set-Cookie HTTP header. Defaults to "PHPSESSID" - Id overwrites the previously choosen session id ======================================================================== session_destroy(int session_id); This destroys the session (e.g. for logout). ======================================================================== session_register(int session_id, string varname); Registers varname for being stored on page shutdown. -- Regards, Sascha Schumann Consultant -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
