number 1 is perfect for one server number 2 (no jokes please) is great for multiple servers. What's neat is that you can use the format of number 1 with the mysql db in the back end quite simply. I could put the full code up with explanations, but here might not be the best place (It would take 2-3 pages). I think it should be in the documentation itself. I will write it up and send it to the appropriate parties and hopefully they will put it up. -----Original Message----- From: Adam Royle [mailto:ifunk@myrealbox.com] Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 5:12 PM To: adam@forsalebyowner.com; php-db@lists.php.net Subject: RE: php sessions using mysql (or any db) Hi, Just wondering, which is the better method: 1. Using PHP sessions ($_SESSION['var'] = "val";) 2. Using mySQL-based sessions (as described in this thread) I know if you're using multiple servers, a DB-based session would be handy. Any comments, anyone? Adam
