| | Hey all,
I am having trouble keeping session variables. If a visitor comes to our website, has a session variable set, then leaves our website and comes back, without closing their browser, should they lose their session variables? This is what's happening to me, and I was under the impression that session variables lasted until the expiration/inactivity timeout, or until the browser was closed. Am I wrong?

Yes. If the user closes the browser, he loses his session variables. Session variables are always tied down to a browser session. By the way, what is the trouble you are facing? It is not very clear from your description.

Session variables are supposed to exist as long as the browser window is open. However, since the browser which is a client side application is coming into picture, it MIGHT depend on the browser you are using and how it treats session variables. Did you try this with diffrent browsers ?

Php-fusion Cms
No session_start() used? (3) A while back i was looking for free hosting and a forumn suite for my own comunity. I ended up using
hostingdirect.co.nz and php-fusion from http://php-fusion.co.uk It was pretty easy to setup and
run. But my site required more specific functions other then generic CMS could offer and I wanted to
learn PHP so I start reading tutorials and such to learn. I was working on them locally and they
seem to run fine on my own server. When i upload my own site to the hostingdirect site I find they
do not have safe_mode off. I got an error in my index.php file when i try and ru....
Storing Session Variables Generated Dynamically
(3) i have many pool (quiz) modules on my site with the information taken from a database. The modules
are processed by the same function with different parameters and i need to save the pool's
status to prevent a user vote several times. I do this setting $_SESSION to 1 , variable
being the name of the quiz, which is taken from the database. So i get to having a code like this:
.................... $name= $row->quiz_name; $_SESSION =1 The problem is that if
i call $_SESSION from another part of the site (another page) the variable is al....
Php - Can Anyone Tell Me What "session" Actually Do?
(5) php - can anyone tell me what "session" actually do? I was looking at this page
http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_sessions.asp this paragraph here: A PHP session solves this
problem by allowing you to store user information on the server for later use (i.e. username,
shopping items, etc). However, session information is temporary and will be deleted after the user
has left the website. If you need a permanent storage you may want to store the data in a database.

Session Variables
Sessions in PHP behaving strangely (4) Hi. I am part of a development team working in PHP and MySQL. The site is using SSL, and users
have to log to use the site. When users log in, their important details are retrieved from the
database and stored in session variables (functionality in the site is permissions specific).
Lately, sessions are "disappearing" for no apparent reason. Users will log in, and at some point
(the length of time will vary unpredicatably) the sessions will lose their value (the variables are
empty) and this causes the site to evict the user. This is very frustrating for the user b....

Which Offer More Security: Cookie Or Session?
(4) Which is more popular: Cookie or Session... Which offers more security for login? I believe that it
is the Session because it is not thus stored in the machine not being able to be had access by
others. It is also simpler of being used because we do not need in worrying them about header
informations However I am sincere in saying that I use more cookie.... I do not know why!

force session destroy
(0) Hi
i need to know how to destroy another users session to force them to log out
i.e. an admin
command which when blocking someone also destroys their sessions if they exist.
is the only
way to do it by for each page load requesting to see if they have been banned? - and if so,
destroying it.
Thats gota be a very bad way of doign it - cos it means that every page load
includes a request that 99% of the time wont be needed.
So if someone knows how to destroy
someones session, within your site, remotely - without checking on each page, then that would b....
