Session again

Hi

Thanks for you guys help in previous questions. appreciate it alot.

I am using sessions to create a 'member section' in a application. I am using session_start() in each page and check for existance of a variable, namely login name to validate the user. If the session[loginname] is empty , then logout is forced.

I never pass session id from page to page. Is it necessary to do so ? will it create prblem when few members login at same time from different locations ?

thanks and hope to hear from you guys. Ben, hope to hear from you.


Thanks again

It's not required.. it's done automatically. $PHPSESSID will contain the session id. You can store the session info in the db and use sessionid to get the data

Thanks, how abt in a multi user enviroment, will there be any mixed up between the seesion ids .. ?

just curious

thanks hope to hear some answers

no, the session data won't be mixed up. the session id is stored on the server and in a cookie on the users browser, that's how sessions work. it's basically transparent cookie usage
