[Phpgedview-talk] Cookies and authentication

[=James B. <jbi...@co...>]

Running v4.0 b7:

Cookies don't seem to be very healthy on my system.
1) I often (but not always) get a red text warning about cookies not being 
turned on, when I log in. (They are, however)
2) Changing the config setting for length of time before requiring a fresh 
login has never worked.
3) Sometimes I have to log in twice within minutes.
4) If I'm not working in the default GEDCOM, and I have to log in after 
timing out, when I *do* log in, I get a "page not found" error. Going from 
one GEDCOM to another is not handled very robustly and can be confusing for 
newbie, frustrating for long-timers. Just putting the GEDCOM specifier in 
all page calls would probably solve the problem.

Is there any way to hack it so that I can exclude myself from having to 
login in several times a day? I do research and periodically pull up the 
database to search the data and to add/edit the results of new research. 
The website may be idle for an hour or two, and I'm really getting tired of 
having to log in every time I go to use the site.
