RE: [PHP] dreaded sessions

Thanks to all who have responded. I have actually only switched to the Innodb tables after I had this same problem with creating the files. The same problem occurs whether I am using the files or the database. Basically, I have performed the steps in verifying that my data is saved in the table (or file). 1. Login into the system 2. After the screen is fully rendered, perform a select and verify that the data is in the table. 3. After verifying that the data is in the table, perform a simple operation on the system. 4. I create an instance to the object that handles writing the data to the database (which does a session_set_save_handler). No errors are reported during the creation of the object. 5. Then, call session_start from the main script. 6. During the session_start the read handler is called and does a query to the database to find the data for my session, based on session id. The query does not error, and after the execute is performed, I print the numRows() of the query and see a zero. Now, this is all at the very beginning of my script, nothing else has had their hands in the session information to this point. However, I am losing the session, and this is seriously happening both with the files and database method. Hope this makes more sense than my last post. Thanks again!

I recall a job interview in like 1999 or something where I was asked if I had used phplib before. They were using FreeBSD and STABLE still only had PHP3 available at the time. - -- ****************************************************** * __ __ _ * * ___/ /__ ___ / /_(_)__ ___ __ __ _______ __ _ * * / _ / -_)_-</ __/ / _ \/ -_) // // __/ _ \/ ' \ * * \_,_/\__/___/\__/_/_//_/\__/\_, (_)__/\___/_/_/_/ * * (___/ greg@destiney.com * ****************************************************** BOFH Excuse #205: Quantum dynamics are affecting the transistors -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFADHBfoAq8t3CabwcRAqfFAKCfZx0569fHld9e5F14UnVSOZe2EACgodYI 17jm+trWEQr1oFwEvsMK688= =meaR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer This e-mail transmission contains confidential information, which is the property of the sender.
