have i got something wrong here? i am trying to create a site that lets the user choose if he wants his data "remembered" or not. however, i set the cookie lifetime to zero and whenever i close the browser, the variables are still there the next time i access the site. (yes: i clicked "reload".) --8<-------------------------------------------------------- if ($remember_user) $exp = time()+$session_expiretime; else $exp = 0; session_start(); session_set_cookie_params($exp); session_register("session_username"); session_register("session_password"); // just to make sure the lifetime is really 0 after that. // which it is. $p = session_get_cookie_params(); echo $p["lifetime"]; --8<-------------------------------------------------------- (running apache/php 4/debian) can anybody say something bout that? tia!
