For the past two years, I've been doing some minor PHP scripts here and there, and I manage quite well with it by now. I've never done a largescale project.. yet.
I've read allot about php, especially this and last month.
Anyway, Since I've never done a largescale project, I thought I'd make one, only for learning purposes. A Nordic community (multilangual that is) with a few nice features, that doesn't have to be mentioned.
And my problem is following:
I have no clue how to build up my project.
I have no idea of where to begin.
So I figured I should start with the login script, wich I also have problem with to build. Not the coding part, but what method to use.
I hate cookies, so that leaves me with sessions.
I was thinking like this, store IP, sessoion_id and userid in a mysql database, and each page load I'll check if session_id and ip matches. But that would require me to do a mysql query each page load. This can easily be solved with the session array instead. On the other hand, I like the first solution I mentioned. What do you recommend?
I'm sorry for my bad english.
Kind regards,
