Sessions across multiple browsers/computers

[pushkidman]

Hey there!

 

I am wondering, is it possible to fetch data from PHP session, that was created in on another browser/computer? Let's say I know session_id() (it's stored in the database).

I've googled a lot for that, but could not find any proper answer

I've only found one solution, which said, that I had to restart session with new session_id(), but data from another computer is not in the array, when I output it.

Calling session_id() before session_start() should do the trick.

 

What's your code?

[pushkidman]

        if (!$User->getSessionKey()) {

            $User->setSessionKey(Roller::Session()->getId())->save();

        }

        else {

            Roller::Session()->restart($User->getSessionKey());

        }


....

class Roller_Core_Session

{

public function init()

	{

        session_start();


		global $_SESSION;

		if(!isset($_SESSION[$this->_sessionNamespace]) || !is_array($_SESSION[$this->_sessionNamespace])) {

			$_SESSION[$this->_sessionNamespace] = array();

		}

	}



    public function restart($id)

    {

        session_id($id);

        $this->init();

    }

....

Here's the above code. I've tried doing it this way, yet I still don't get data from another session...

Have you checked to see if you're getting the right session ID in your browser?
