Re: session duration

>Is there a way to programatically (inside a session) change session duration >for the current session only? (using cookie-based sessions) ? Wild Guess: What if you use the PHP functions to alter the php.ini value for session time out in that script before you call session_start()?... Totally Stupid, Ugly, Ikcy, Hack Answer: PHP is just sending Cookies with the session ID and a time-frame for their duration... So you send the same Cookie with a different time duration... It's a bit tricky cuz different browsers will response differently to getting the same cookie twice, and they are order-dependent, so you might need to send your cookie, call session_start() and send your cookie *again*... Still not gonna work on every browser, but may be within acceptable market-penetration levels... This is just *SOOO* wrong to do, but it may let you limp by until you come up with a better answer... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
