edawg Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Hi, What I want to do is make a website im working on more user friendly, so ive completed the registration and login side to the site, but i need advice on what to use from here?, im using sessions at the moment while the user is logged in, but some people say there not to secure?, then I see things about HTTP authorization?, and also cookies?, im confused........ My question is, what is the most secure and reliable thing to use as users login, and go about the website?, what do most of you use?. Thanks for all your help!.

trq Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Sessions are about as secure as your going to get. Cookies should really only be used as a meens of remembering a client, this way they won't need to login on each visit.

edawg Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 So you would setcookie() and start session with the same user info variables when they log-in??. And for any regular un-registered user, is it a good idea to set them a cookie or session too??.
