Sessions
Hi,

I am trying to use sessions for a restricted area of a web site. So far I have my users logged in, and the session started using..

session_start();

session_register(username);
session_register(password);

How do I...

1. Ensure that the session exists on the next page. If it doesn't, I would redirect to login page.

2. Put a timeout on the session of 600secs so if the user does not so anything fo 10 mins, then clicks a link they are asked to log in again.

RE: Sessions
first one is easy, just run this:
php Code:
Original - php Code 
  1.  
  2. if(($_SESSION(username) == '') || ($_SESSION(password) == ''))
  3. {
  4. echo 'session doesnt exist';
  5. }
  6. else
  7. {
  8. echo 'session does exist';
  9. }


although, i'm not too great with sessions, not sure about the timeout one..cookies are probably better for that...

RE: Sessions
make sure that you put a "require(your file)" statement so a user cannot jump ahead
