Hi all 

I'm not to sure where to actually post this, but maybe you guys can help out. This is more of a request than anything else.

What I'm looking for is function or a constant that will keep track of session that are currently in use in memory. This should just return a integer.

eg.

<?php

print session_current();    //returns 4 - These are currently active

?>

Thanks in advance...

J

This can be done in user space, using custom session handlers.

Please can you explain to me how this is done, without having to create some
sort of data storage facility.

Regards

The internals@ list is not the appropriate forum for this discussion.
Try php-general@lists.php.net instead.

Hi Wez

Please can you send me in the right direction, for requesting a function to
be added to the php core.

This doesn't belong in PHP as it's an application thing. Also, there is
no way this can be added to PHP with the current framework, hence Wez
pointing you to the correct list to discuss a script-level solution.
