Am trying to increae the session lifetime to 8 hours ish using this code ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime',28800); does not work ? any ideas Pete

There are 3 conditions that must be met: 1. You must set it before session_start() 2. No other application can access your session storage. Other applications could have shorter session lifetime, and the shortest would apply for all other applications. 3. The session cookie must live long enough. The default lifetime for session cookie is 0, that means untill the browser closes. HTH
