note 92082 added to book.session

If you need sessions to work with a MySQL backend (e.g. on shared hosts, where sessions files might be exposed), you could try to build a custom session handler, but that's quite... icky. There's also the problem of replacing the session capability for all other apps on the same php environment, and the assumption that you can configure the php.ini file (again, on a shared host this might be a problem). A simple alternative that works in "parallel" with the built-in sessions (i.e. $_SESSION) would be to use a library like: http://www.hotscripts.com/listing/msess-php-class/ Takes out much of the complexity and allows you to selectively apply the alternate handler per script rather than per server. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 218.186.9.232 (proxied: 218.212.108.139) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.session.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/92082 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92082 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/92082 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
