[PHP] compiling 3'd party php modules
Hello, I need to compile sqlanywhere module. http://www.sybase.com/detail/1,6904,1019698,00.html Theyr documentation says that i need to compile the whole php source tree. That is not an easy task on gentoo with ebuilds. Well i managed to do that. But maybe there is an easier way? To compile seperate modules and just load them with dl() function..

[PHP] session id changing all the time on some pc's
Hello, I have a strange problem. For example i have a script: ?php session_start(); echo session_id(); ? Once it started a session the session_id should never change. It works on my localhost with default php configuration. I'm using mozilla firefox and IE. I put this script on some other server on the net. It works just fine too with both browsers. But i also put it on one other server and while you are you using IE the session_id changes all the time. With mozilla firefox everything just works fine. On all servers. I looked at server configurations but i couldn't find anything usefull. I tried to change IE settings to accept all cookies but nothing changed. Maybe someone knows where's the problem..

I dont know of all the specifics of your situation, but I know when it happened to my code, it boiled down to a cookie problem. (I never experienced it first hand unless I turned off cookies in my own browser. I saw it was happening for other users on my code). So what I eventually did, was modified my code to work with browsers that do not store cookies (for what ever reason that may be). By that I mean to pass the session id in the url and in forms... I know i can pass the session id by url.. But this solution is ugly and hopefully not the only one there is.. The problem is as i understand IE is not accepting the cookie. So the session id allways regenerates. Everything works fine with mozilla. The strangest part of the show is some pc's that have IE installed accepts those cookies. I turned 'accept ALL cookies'. Same result.. Maybe ... this could be a domain problem.. The only thing i want to know is all the truth about IE (6?) and cookies :) Heeelp :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You will always have problems with users having weird cookie settings in their browser. Cookies are fine for intranets where you know the infrastructure you are dealing with. Passing the session id via GET/POST may be ugly but makes you independent of the browser's cookie settings. I would strongly discourage trans_id with sessions that contain sensitive data. Yes it does contain sensitive data.. And those people cant work with that data because of IE... Those people have to travel from place to place. They can't use mozilla everywhere or change the IE settings or even to turn the zone alarm off... So what are your suggestions? Using trans sid is the only solution as i see now.. No matter how unsafe it is.. Or it looks or works ugly.. That is the problem :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Dealing with session expiry
Hello, Why are you saving such information into a session? Sessions are for temporary information. Use cookies or database, if you are doing what you are saying :) There should be no harm. Bye. I have some pages that use sessions to call out certain elements in the layouts. It allows user to decide how should their pages look for the duration of their visit. Unfortunately whenever a user leaves their browser idle past the expity time of the session on their next click pages fall apart and all styles etc. are lost. I understand that I can detect or at least anticipate expiry of the session and renew it before it does. The question is how?
