Re: CGI::Session Expiration Woes

My solution to the same problem ( I use CGI::Session with CGI::Application in all my applications ) is to remember what the user asked for before they were asked to revalidate. Each time the user makes a menu selection - and goes to the dispatcher - I check for expiration, if the session has expired than I save the requested option oin the session and then attempt to re-validate the session. Once they are validated, they then get taken to the place they asked to go.

I'd like to see that code, if you wouldn't mind. I would assume you use merlyn's two-tier sessioning structure? ------ We are the carpenters and bricklayers of the Information Age. Then there are Damian modules.... sigh* ... that's not about being less-lazy -- that's about being on some really good drugs -- you know, there is no spoon.* - flyingmoose I shouldn't have to say this, but any code, unless otherwise stated, is untested	[reply]
