I'm quite new to sessions, an am trying to program a script which
needs two sessions ...
I have a members area which uses 1 session, and when you click on
disconnect it closes the session and the user returns to the login
page.
I also am programming a shopping cart so members can choose what
they would like to download that also uses a session.
All worked fine untill I realised that because they both use the
same session, when I disconnect from the members area it also
obviously deletes all elements from the download cart.
I would there for need to have two seperate sessions one for the
cart, and one for the members area. And sometimes I will need to
have them both open.
Is this possible ? I've searched google but not found anything
interesting, except session_name, but I still don't know how to open
two sessions or close one session but not the other, or open a
variable in a specific session ...
Just use one session. Put the data for each session into a separate
array...
$_SESSION['members'] = array('lots', 'of', 'data');
$_SESSION['cart'] = array('lots', 'of', 'money-making', 'crap');
To "disconnect" the user from one or other simply unset that variable...
unset($_SESSION['members']);
unset($_SESSION['cart']);
KISS.
