sessions in PHP

zowey · 12-26-2004, 06:17 AM

I declare one variable, in file1.php:

Code:

<?php
   session_start();
   $_SESSION["something"] = "somevalue";
?>

and make file2.php:

Code:

<?php
   session_start();
   echo $_SESSION["something"];
?>

when I execute file1, then file2 I get value of session, but
when I close my browser and start it again, executing the file2
without file1 I don't get value of session variable... why?

Once you close your browser, the session is over and the server releases the session resources.

I don't know what happened, now just I don't lose session variable when I close browser.. strange
