Re^4: PHP Sessions and Perl

Ok, I am aware that sessions are stored on the server side, my confusion is how to access that information in Perl to use it for authorizing access to other pages.

See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5593359/where-does-session-save Summary: "The session data that you read and write using `$_SESSION` is stored on server side, usually in text files in a temporary directory. They can not be accessed from outside." "The `session.save_path` variable influences the location on the server where the session data is stored." If you can find where the session is stored you may be able to retrieve the information you need.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
