The page that starts the sesssion:
<?php
session_start();
$ticket = 'admitone';
session_register('ticket');
?>
The page that checks the session:
<?php
session_start();
if ( $_SESSION["ticket"] == "admitone" ) {
echo"works";
} else {
echo"no work";
}
?>
My problem is every time I reload the second page the session time just keeps extending even though in my PHP.ini it has a time limit. Any ideas?
My PHP.ini session info: (PHP 4.3.7)
