Shopping Cart Session and Logged In Session


JStefan

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am making a shopping cart where I am using the session id to cary the info from page to page, etc.

The customer should have the option to login (in this case the shipping address will be automatically retrieved etc....) I am normally using sessions as well to give access to users to restricted areas.

In my case I have already the session started, so how I can differentiate a logged in customer from one which is not?

This is a bit confusing for me, any help will be appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Julian

Use a variable to recognize logged in users for example $_SESSION['isLogged']. And make sure in your program logic that u check that when ever needed. Also it is a good idea to check session_id against database entry once in a while for session hijacking but thats a whole another story.
