Session Control in PH Web - new feature suggestion for phweb

[Joe Boyle]

Given that the return address of the browser must be reasonably unique,
allow a system call ( along the lines of 'userid/logonid') to return the
value of the address of the browser.  This would help enable sessionid
processing.

 

Obviously, it would be even easier if PHweb simply generated the equivalent
of a unique sessionid :-)

There is no session ID in PH Web because PH Web is stateless. In other
words, once a request has been satisfied, the PH Web Server does not retain
any information about that request. As Joe has pointed out, you can easily
generate a unique number and pass it back and forth.

Subject: Session Control in PH Web

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
