sessions and cookies theory
Posted: Sun May 01, 2005 1:45 pm
ok, i think i've gotten the hang of oo php and understand much of the format of mytopix (after a few weeks of review)
i am stuck on one issue, though. is it better to use all sessions? or use a combination of sessions with cookies? if i have an affiliate script, i can very easily use a cookie to track something. is it better to use sessions with this? since sessions don't store information on a person's computer, they expire upon exit... are sessions the best way to go? or will there have to be at least one type of cookie set on the user's computer?
thank you.
