We have a site which requires users log in. Once they do so a session is
created (session_start), some data is saved as session data,
particularly data which identifies the user, their privileges, etc. If
the session ends, breaks, etc. The user must log in again.
There are also forms on the site. When a user submits a form, data, both
posted and session, is saved to a MySQL database.
If a session breaks when a user submits data via the form, the result is
that the user must log in again, the data is lost and the user unhappy.
This happens rarely - but when it does, it can upset the user who has
put effort into completing the form.
Is there a simple yet secure way of preventing this problem - for
example passing the session id with the form and resurrecting the
session if it has broken?
Thanks,
Jeff
