PHP native session support
Posted: Sun May 14, 2006 12:59 pm
So I've spent the last few hours reading up on everything sessions and have a pretty solid overview of how they work and why, etc...yadda yadda... 
I'm ready to begin writing my own session class, but I still can't decide whether I should roll my own 100% or stick with native functions...
The only functionality which is really nice about native sessions is session ID propagating through URL's - which I could implement myself quite easily, but still...
What I need to know, has anyone ever ran into a situation where native session support wasn't available???
Not sure if this question is even reasonable, as I'm writting this class strictly php5+
Anyways, outside of the generic session functionality not being available or customizing where/how the session data is stored...
Can anyone think of a good reason why I would roll my own solution 100%?
Cheers
