Hello,
I'm about to implement session management, and I'm considering rolling my
own instead of using PHP's.
Specifically, I'm considering using hidden fields for persistent object
properties because (1) I don't want cookies to be an issue, (2) I prefer not
to have session IDs appear in a URL, and (3) I prefer not to use require a
database just to store persistent properties.
Are there drawbacks to storing persistent object properties as a serialized
value in hidden fields that I'm missing? This is a newbie's first major web
application, so I really appreciate your input.
