A quick note when trying to implement session handling over SQL databases. When you try to do something like this: $qry = "REPLACE INTO SITE_SESSIONS (SessionKey, SessionExpiry, SessionValue) VALUES ('$key', $expiry, '$value' );"; mysql_query($qry); This may fail if $value has a malformed string. In my case, $value had a single quote which made the write_session fail. My suggestion (and my solution) for such an occurance is to simply base64_encode($value) before the SQL constructing the SQL statement in the write_session handler, and of course, to base64_decode($value) in the read_session handler. Cheers, Ahmed. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+25815 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+25815 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+25815
