db session session_data into an array

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi guys,

I am currently using the DB session extension of CI to deal with user sessions and authorisation. I have hit a bit of a problem though. Ideally I would like to query the database table and put all the items in the session_data field into an array, but because of the way that the data is stored I cannot see an easy way to do this. Has anyone had to deal with this problem and managed to find a way to do it? I'd be most grateful if you could share any ideas. Many thanks,

L
