Note Submitter: dan ---- If you understand how sessions work in PHP, here's a FREE (GNU) and very well coded custom session handler "package" for use with MySQL. This is extremely useful if you want PHP to handle sessions using a MySQL database, ie, you want to overcome the "slooowww" access to $_SESSION with default settings, you like the idea of custom session handling but are too lazy to set it up (like me =)), you are hosted on a shared server and need session info secured, you'd like to see a really well coded sample of how to take advantage of custom session handling, etc... The documentation is minimal, so read up on the session.* variables, explore the code, and have fun with it! http://www.cheetah-soft.com/csh/ To those using a third-party web host, I suggest that you disable persistant connections. Also, note that after going through the "Class Configuration" on the website, the options you selected are very easy to change in the custom generated configuation file. Thanks to Cheetah Soft, Inc for making it available under GNU!
