[quote author="nuwanda" date="1275748441"]I'm using native PHP sessions but find the flashdata methods really handy.
Of course that means I'm autoloading the CI session library to take advantage of the flashdata methods.
That means I'm loading a script and only using part of it's functionality.
I messed around with passing session vars to my views but the flashdata is really nice. Ya know, one less problem.
Anyone got the same setup? Any better way to do it?[/quote]
This is exactly what I do. I don't feel that using CI sessions gives me the same functionality that $_SESSION does, but using the flash sessions of CI is pretty handy. If I took time to make a flash session for $_SESSION, then I wouldn't need CI sessions at all!
