Hello !
I want to write a (yet another) free email-card-sending-system.
Therefore, I have to identify the user while he is inputting the
parameters of one card on several pages.
It would also be nice that the user would find the card he was working
on let's say 14 days after he startet to create it.
My question is: What's the best to do it ?
Using a cookie to identify a file on my web-server, where all the
variables of the card are stored ?
Using a session-id (since I'm new on PHP, I don't know so much about it
yet). Where are the session-variables stored INTERNALLY ? How can I set
a "livetime" of x days ?
Using something else ?
Regards
Martin
