session lib need advice

hi

i need advice from someone that worked with the third party session libs
i don't know with one to use.

i need the lib to :
- be compatible with php native session (to access data $_SESSION['var'])
- to be a complete compatible replacement of ci's session class 1.7.1 (have the same functions etc.)
- to store the sessions inside a db
- the sessions have to expire when the browser is closed

thanks in advance for u'r advice

I havn't been able to look through it entirely to see if it meets your needs, but a quick glance seems to suggest that Native Session meets your needs perfectly. Of course, there are always alternatives and I suggest that you look here (scroll down) for more options. :coolsmile:

Just out of interest, why do you need specific access to $_SESSION? I found that $this->session->userdata("item") was a better solution.

because i want to integrate a forum and a lot of other stuff so i need to pass data from ci to other applications
