note 86853 added to session.configuration

can someone elaborate on 'session.save_handler' directive? what values are possible? 'files' is self-explanatory - what about 'user'? i've seen example code setting custom handlers (session_set_save_handler()) for session management with a MySQL database. but only one of these examples denotes that you have to set... session.save_handler = user ...can someone explain? this is very rarely documented. ---- Server IP: 212.124.37.9 Probable Submitter: 84.154.93.149 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/86853 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86853 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/86853 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
