Hi, I'm trying to understand sessions and I've looked at some tutorials but still I'm not 100% on it. I want to store session data in the database rather that use cookies. I now I need to use session_set_save_handler ("open", "close", "read", "write", "destroy", "gc"); but how do I specify db name etc. Has anyone got an example script that actualy work so I can have a look at it. Also I've tried this script and it returned to me only open (/tmp, PHPSESSID) read (db764b17189f06ea34216cb4f6973ed9) but no write. Does this mean that php.ini need to have session.save_handler=user? Thaks, Ajdin The script is: <?php function open ($save_path, $session_name) { echo "open ($save_path, $session_name)<br>"; return true; } function close () { echo "close<br>"; return true; } function read ($key) { echo "read ($key)<br>"; return "foo|i:1;"; } function write ($key, $val) { echo "write ($key, $val)<br>"; return true; } function destroy ($key) { return true; } function gc ($maxlifetime) { return true; } session_set_save_handler ("open", "close", "read", "write", "destroy", "gc"); session_start (); $foo++; ?>
