instalation guide

 all you have to do is place *ses.php scripts in your include path
 edit config.ses.php file to set your mysql username, password, db,
 table names also a securekey that will be used to set session ids,
 session timeout.

 after you have modified config.ses.php you have two choices:
 a) run install.php file that will create needed tables in your db
  (mysql user must have permisions), or:
 b) execute the following sql scripts in your mysql terminal (shell, phpmyadmin, etc)

 ---------start sql----------------
  CREATE TABLE `session_master` (
   `sid` VARCHAR( 100 ) NOT NULL ,
   `variable` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL ,
   `value` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL ,
   INDEX ( `sid` )
  );


  CREATE TABLE `session_global` (
   `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
   `sid` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL ,
   `start` DATETIME NOT NULL ,
   `last` DATETIME NOT NULL ,
   `ip` VARCHAR( 20 ) NOT NULL ,
   `logout` TINYINT( 0 ) NOT NULL ,
   PRIMARY KEY ( `sid` ) ,
   UNIQUE (`id`)
  );
 -----------end sql------------------



 voila, you now have an excelent session manager to bookmark your visitors
 
use guide

 this system allows to handle any variable in a session

 in all your php pages that you want to use session you have to place
 the following line BEFORE ANY OUTPUT (be carefull: even blank spaces or
 blank lines before '<?php' are output)
 
  include 'session.ses.php';

 
 all your session variables will be stored in $_session (not $_SESSION)
 and you can acces them as

  $_session['name']
 
 to register a variable in a session use:
 
  set_session_var(name, value)

 this line will make an insert into $_db_table to store variable value
 after set_session_var, $_session will contain at place 'name' value 'value'
 

 DO NOT modify $_session values in any other way like

  <DO NO DO THIS> $_session['foo'] = 'var'</DO NOT DO THIS>
 
 because that variable will not be updated during session life into db
