RE: [PHP4BETA] Session management functions

Christophe, I have reviewed your code, and here is what I have done that has been working for me. I've been playing around with the session management stuff for a week or so now (RedHat 6.0, apache 1.3.6, PHP Beta 2 statically linked), so if anyone else has a cleaner solution to what I'm doing than feel free to offer a better suggestion... First of all, have you linked the .php3 extension to your application/x-httpd-php not application/x-httpd-php3 in apache? That would help first of all... Secondly, as far as I have seen you need to call session_start() at the beginning of each page. (I am not sure if this is correct, but that is the only way it worked for me.) Finally, session_register() must be called *BEFORE* you assign a value to the variable. This should solve most of your problems. If you would like some sample code, or some more advice, you can reply to me privately or if more people on the list would like some samples, I would gladly post it up.

Do not feel too sad about it, i didn't manage to have the sessions stuff working under Linux either. Furthermore, none in this list seem to know how it really works. Why is it so damn difficult to get this information ? My sample scripts are there, if you have a moment, please have a look. I've tried about every possible solution. http://clauer.free.fr/php4sess.zip (3ko) #provoc_on Please let us know if someone has seen it working, i begin to ask myself if sessions under php4 really work or not ;-)) #provoc_off Regards, CL -- Christophe Lauer R&D - SQLi http://www.techmetrix.com http://www.sqli.fr/online -- PHP 4 Beta
