This seems to me to be a very simple problem, but I can't find a good answer anywhere. I need to lengthen my session time so my users don't get timed-out so fast. Will the set_time_limit() function do this? Do I need to call it multiple times?
had a quick look in the manual and found this.
set_time_limit() only defines the maximum execution time a script can run for before timing out.
hope that helps,
Jonno.
Use ini_set(). Look for 'session.gc_maxlifetime' on that manual page.
