Hi Massimo,
Thank you for your quick reply.
OK the form is working.
For the session, if I understand correctly, the Session class just does a
sql delete based on last update time.
But only the DB knows what sessions will be deleted.
What about doing a more elaborate GC with a default Session method called
with the "to be deleted" session?
Makes sense?
Thank you,
B.
