Question about Sessions ...

While the sessions shouldn't be regenerated each time, I have run into situations where a cookie-based session within CI wasn't working. . . . In every instance that I recall, changing sessions to be stored in the database resolved that issue.

Wow, I didn't know that. But in case storing sessions in the database is more complicated than someone wants to do things, here's how to set up a custom class that uses the regular PHP sessions.

And of course, you don't even have to use a library. You can use regular PHP session code as usual. Just put the session_start() in your constructor, and then add data to the $_SESSION variable in the usual way ($_SESSION ['customer'] = 'Joe Smith')
