Re: [Phplib-users] Max's session class

[Mike G. <Mik...@sa...>]

Could someone give some pros and cons of using session4.inc vs session4_custom, i.e.,
(apparently of) using a standard PHP4 save_handler vs MySQL, etc., storage using CT_*
classes? And for that matter, pros and cons of using a save_handler vs those supplied by
PHP4 sessions?

TIA!
