While were talking about session advancement... has anyone ever thought of adding shared sesssions? Consider the following scenario: I have 3 sets of variables: 1. Global Scoped - Variables accessed and altered by anyone entering my site. EG: a "currently online" array which stores the a list of active users 2. Logged in Scoped - Variables accessed by *anyone* logged in. EG: if you cache the database stuff in a session then if one user updates the cache the often you want all the logged in users to see that change without having to requery the db 3. Individual Scope - Variables specific to this user (eg: whats my name, my last ip, when did I last do anything meaningful). Being able to split those scopes up into separate variables would be great and being able to do something along the lines of: $session->global = array of global variables $session->loggedin = 2nd scope $session->personal = personal variables and then have the session module manage those 3 sessions individually. In short - it would be cool if a script could (easily) have access to a multitude of sessions and keep them segregated. -- Dan Hardiker [dhardiker@staff.firstcreative.net] ADAM Software & Systems Engineer First Creative Ltd
