The tech support which hosts my web site e-mailed me that the php.ini
file has $_SESSION[''] variables set for 19 minutes. It is a server
wide variable which they do not want to change their system setting for.
Do any of you know if there is a setting that may be modified for just
my web site?
My other approach is this: Is there a way through a PHP command that I
myself may clear the $_SESSION[''] variables and then re-instate them
immediately after clearing them so my web site hosting command will not
come into effect until it is truly needed?
The way I have this set up is that index.php keeps on being called with
a syntax such as
index.php?request=function
Therefore I could cancel the $_SESSION[''] variables each time index.php
is accessed and then immediately re-create it ...
There is only one variable I am carrying in there and it is the account
which is logged in. I could easily put it to another variable such as
$account = $_SESSION['active_account'];
#insert command to close session variable
#now we are going to start a new session
$_SESSION['active_account'] = $account;
Is there any way of doing this?
