Hi Everyone,

I'm new and hoping there are brilliant PHP coders out there to help me. I'm trying to include class files and object oriented coding in my stuff. I want to replace my present login and session management system with class files. I'm using "usersession.phpm" from chapter 15 in Professional PHP5, and a MySQL database. My first problem is my host is not up to PHP 5 yet, so I've modified the file to work with PHP 4.

I'm feeling pretty stupid since I can't seem to figure out how to implement the class. I understand how to instantiate the class and I understand that a class must be passed around to each page that needs it. Where I'm stumped is, since this is a session class, how and where do I pass it. Each time I include it in a new page, I get a new session or at least the user class I passed is lost.

Can someone please help me to grasp this concept?

Thanks,

Bill
