Re: Making session last

Your change to the setting would have to happen *before* the session_start() and if php.ini is set to always do sessions, you can't get in before that. You may be able to use http://php.net/setcookie to provide a time-limit for the session id cookie so that it won't expire when the browser closes. -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out?
