Re: Newbie session problem

Dear Patrick,

PHPSlash uses the old-style PHPLIB framework for session management (which
is a wrapper around PHP4 new-style sessions).  Session variables are in the
global namespace.

However, PHPSlash has only one session variable, and that's $auth.  It's an
object of a class extending PHPLIB's auth class.  If you want the username,
look in the array $auth->auth.

Other information about the user can be found in the database.  What else
are you looking for?

Yours,
Matthew Leingang
