Is this the best way to extend the PHP session time?

Hi all,

 

 

I'm trying to increase the server default php session timeout from 1hour to 3hours. I don't have access to my php.ini but can use .htaccess. Is the following the correct way to do this?

 

in the .htaccess add the line:

 

php_value session.gc_maxlifetime 10800

 

Or would I be better off including the following after every session start() on everypage:

 

ini_set("session.gc_maxlifetime","10800");

 

thanks!
