Session support in PHP consists of a way to preserve certain data
|
|
across subsequent accesses. This enables you to build more
|
|
customized applications and increase the appeal of your web site.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
A visitor accessing your web site is assigned a unique id, the
|
|
so-called session id. This is either stored in a cookie on the
|
|
user side or is propagated in the URL.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The session support allows you to register arbitrary numbers of
|
|
variables to be preserved across requests. When a visitor accesses
|
|
your site, PHP will check automatically (if <link
|
|
linkend="ini.session.auto-start">session.auto_start</link>
|
|
is set to 1) or on your request (explicitly through
|
|
<function>session_start</function> or implicitly through
|
|
<function>session_register</function>) whether a specific session
|
|
id has been sent with the request. If this is the case, the prior
|
|
saved environment is recreated.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<caution>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If you do turn on <link linkend="ini.session.auto-start">
|
|
session.auto_start</link> then you cannot put objects into
|
|
your sessions since the class definition has to be
|
|
loaded before starting the session in order to recreate the
|
|
objects in your session.
|
|
</para>
|
|
</caution>
|
|
<para>
|
|
All registered variables are serialized after the request
|
|
finishes. Registered variables which are undefined are marked as
|
|
being not defined. On subsequent accesses, these are not defined
|
|
by the session module unless the user defines them later.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<warning>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Some types of data can not be serialized thus stored in sessions. It
|
|
includes <type>resource</type> variables or objects with circular
|
|
references (i.e. objects which passes a reference to itself to another
|
|
object).
|
|
</para>
|
|
</warning>
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Session handling was added in PHP 4.0.0.

</para>

<note>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Please note when working with sessions that a record of a session
|
|
is not created until a variable has been registered using the
|
|
<function>session_register</function> function or by adding a new
|
|
key to the <varname>$_SESSION</varname> superglobal array. This
|
|
holds true regardless of if a session has been started using the
|
|
<function>session_start</function> function.
