Session Control in PH Web

[Joe Boyle]

you could even try somthing like 

idfile_temp = ascii( date ... + ... time ... + ph random... + .txt
if not setsytemval (dict_session_file, idfile_temp ... 
rc_temp = " cmd /c echo %random% >  " + idfile_temp
run command rc_temp wait
get dict_session_file

  You could use the date and time to generate a random number ( on the login page ), then use the three values to write a record to table containing a 'auto increment' column. Now retrieve the record and use the auto increment' column value as the session id. The assumption being that a) date and time generate a different random number for different logins and b) there isn't a PHweb session id.

  You could always replace the random number with a value entered by the user if a) isn't the case.

  Hello Guys,

   

  We are developing PH web application. We come across issue on user login security.

  Currently we are using Database to create user and their login password.

  IN PHP / ASP, there is a syntax call 'session' to capture the value of login session (hidden & encrpyted) and be able to pass from page to page.

  Is there any command in PH Web to do the same feature as 'session' ?

   

  PH Web version: 8.41D1 Axiants 4GL 3.4D1

  O/S: Windows 2003

  Database: MS SQL

   

  Regards,

  Kim Han
