berridgeab Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Hi I operate (example) www.joebloggs.com which is using PHP sessions to handle Logins, etc etc. I also operate a separate site at www.joebloggs.com/NewSite which is entirely seperate from the site at www.joebloggs.com, even though there operating on the same Domain and Server. My problem is, when a user logs out of www.joebloggs.com (Using session_destroy), it also destroys any session information associated with www.joebloggs.com/NewSite. Is there any way to prevent this happening or am I going to have to rethink how I handle my sessions? Scouring the internet (Ive quoted below) I think somebody mentioned using session_name() but I fail to see how it would be implemented? To avoid problems with sessions you should use the session_name('myapplication') [ session_name({UNIQUE_APP_ID}) ]. The problem you are mentioning can occur in more simple situations where there is an administration panel and a sign-in form for the users of the web site. If session_name is not used a signed-in user could have access to the admin. panel but this depends on the auth. scheme and mechanism you have implemented.
