Hello,

the module is greate and i'm happy about this yousfull module but i need
the funktion load to as the sample of the Mainpage.

I must story some data in the cgisession_file and if i cal new i't
doesend store it. if i call load it store it and i can work with te
vcariable. so now the problem is:

first time i have done it as like the sample:

   $s = CGI::Session->load() or die CGI::Session->errstr();
   if ( $s->is_expired ) {
       print $s->header(),
           $cgi->start_html(),
           $cgi->p("Your session timed out! Refresh the screen to start
new session!")
           $cgi->end_html();
       exit(0);
   }

   if ( $s->is_empty ) {
       $s = $s->new() or die $s->errstr;
   }

but it have no effekt.
Everybody can browse the site without login.
if i change $s->new() to CGI::Session->new() it works as it shout but
after load() $s->is_expired returns
every time 0!
and every time i must relogin and can click one time.

the module works greate, on other systems but ther i don't need load()
after session generateted and no
additional session vars.



have anyone a idee where i make the failer?
one importent think we have, that the $session objekt shout be transfer
to other perl objects.
we need to get the username so:

sub getUsername
{
   my $self    = shift;
   my $session = CGI::Session->load;
   return $session->param( 'login_name' );
}

So i hope you can help me.

thanks
greets
Florian Kristen
