[PHP] trans-sid .. help
I have been using some simple session management for some of my pages. I am inquiring about the use of transparent session id usage. I have read the manual and I am still a little confused on how to go about using it. I did run phpinfo() to make sure that trans-id was enabled. It outputed: session.use_trans_id[local value] 1[master value] 1 I am assuming that this means it is enabled. Now my question is how do I go about using a trans-id? I've seen session id appended to the URL (i.e. this.php?PHPSESSID=a2604374903c616c9cd34e13c0ceed98), but would like to use it without disclosing the session id in the URL. If anyone could give me some sample code to help me alleviate the confusion, it will be greatly appreciated. I am using PHP 4.1.2 compiled as CGI on Windows NT 4.0 -- Joshua E Minnie/CIO [EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't work for recognition, but always do work worthy of recognition. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The whole point of transparent session id is that it doesn't rely on cookies being set on the client browser. Thus it /has/ to propagate the session id via the URL and through hidden values in forms. Both of these happens automatically. -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.com.hk Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design Hosting * Internet Intranet Applications Development * /* Fascinating, a totally parochial attitude. -- Spock, Metamorphosis, stardate 3219.8 */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You can't; that's how it works. This is why people prefer cookies. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
