[PHP] Session Expiration?
I have gone through the past posts and can't find an answer to my problem I'm using a URL based session management schema, and I was wondering how to set the session duration time. I know there is the session.gc_probability and session.gc_maxlifetime but that's only for garbage collection. Just for testing I set the probability to 100 and the maxlifetime to 60 just to see if my session would automatically expire, as my luck would have it didn't. I use session_start() in my test scripts so that should run with a 100% probability any garbage clean up of any sessions that are 1 minute old. I have the session.use_cookies set to 0 and, the session.cookie_lifetime only applies to cookies. So I don't know why my sessions are not expiring. Does anybody have any Idea? Should I just be manually checking for the duration of the session(?) and then delete it if it has expired?

[PHP] Re: mkdir and directory permissions
Cool! the umask() is what I have to set prior to mkdir() for this to work.

[PHP] Re: Session Trouble
why don't you use the session_register("voted") function. Then if you want to check it you can use the session_is_registered("voted) . -Matias "Stephen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:000a01c27ba1$d8871e00$0200a8c0@;melchior... I'm trying to register a session for a poll by first opening the session (session_start()), then registering it like this: $_SESSION['voted'] = "yes"; Problem is, when I check to see if the session is there: if(isset($_SESSION['voted'])) I have it load up a page containing the poll results: But it doesn't display it. It displays the default (which is the voting part). Any ideas why?

[PHP] Re: processing form checkboxes
you need brackets, so when php initializes the variables, it knows to make the variable state an array. name=state[] -Matias "James Taylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:DOEJIAGJHJHPBFMLOGOFKEJNCDAA.jtx@;hatesville.com... > Heya folks, not sure if this is more of a php question or an html question, > though I'm right now leaning towards a 50% php, 50% html, so I think this is > on topic still. > > I have a form filled with checkboxes, each representing one of the 50 > states.

[PHP] mkdir and directory permissions
Hi-ya all, here's a quickie... In my script I create a directory (mysql.backup.timestamp/) within a directory called backup/. I use the function mkdir("mysql.backup.timestamp", "0777"); and it shows the permissions as after the function executes: drx--t 2 nobodydaemon1024 Oct 24 15:16 mysql.backup.October-24-2002-1516 Where's the permissions (drx--t 2 nobody daemon) coming from? Is it the php.ini, apache conf or the operating system? I would like to set the owner to "root" and the group to "nc". How can this be achieved by the php script? Or do I have set this up in the other environments (OS or Apache)? Cheers! -Matias -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Include
This might sound like a dumb question but I just need verification so that I can convince myself that I'm going insane! I have this error in which I include 3 files (common_html.inc, common_db.inc, common_functions.inc) well I have a clean() function in the common_functions.inc file. But it seems that it is not getting called and then my script crashes. If I comment out the clean() function then it works. The clean() function is just for added security. Is there a maximum number of times you can include different files? -Matias -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
