Re: Auth: two instances on the same page

Hi Lorenzo, I was (am) using different session names, but that doesn't work. Logging into $auth1 logs me into $auth2 as well. Any ideas? I'm using the latest stable Auth with PHP4.3.4. Could explain how the code differentiates between two instances of Auth using the session_name() function? Perhaps then I'll understand what I'm doing wrong. One question about the example you gave below: why do you set the sessionName again after you've already passed it through the constructor? Thanks, Jeroen Lorenzo Alberton wrote:

Hi, Is it possible to have two instances of Auth running on the same page?

Of course it is, I've added a patch to set the session name few months ago. ======================= $auth1Params = array(

      'table'         => 'table1',
      'usernamecol'   => 'col1',
      'passwordcol'   => 'pwdcol1',
      'dsn'           => $dbinfo,
      'sessionName'   => '_AuthSession1'
    );

$auth2Params = array(

      'table'         => 'table2',
      'usernamecol'   => 'col2',
      'passwordcol'   => 'pwdcol2',
      'dsn'           => $dbinfo,
      'sessionName'   => '_AuthSession2'
    );

$auth1 = new Auth('MDB', $auth1Params, 'loginFunction'); $auth1->start(); $auth2 = new Auth('MDB', $auth2Params, 'loginFunction'); $auth2->setSessionname('PHP_AUTH2_SESS'); $auth2->start(); if ($auth1->checkAuth()) { // some code } if ($auth2->checkAuth()) { // some other code } ======================= This should work.
