Well I`ve just tryed that but didn't work.
I think that ini_set("session.gc_maxlifetime","28800") is useless,
because after setting the value for gc.maxlifetime the scripts ends
normally.
I mean the html is displayed and the application waits for user input.
But at that time ( after the script has finished ) the original value
for session.gc_maxlifetime is restored (defaults to 1440).
So , does any one have any other ideas?
