Hi

From what I understand, a session is deleted after the browser window
is closed. I have been trying to work out why the session file remains
on the server (it is named something like sess_3ghy6...) and has to be
manually deleted. I want to avoid having hundreds of these files
collecting on the server and would appreciate any advice on why they
aren't automatically deleting when the browser closes.

Here is part of my php info file if that s.

session.auto_start Off Off
session.bug_compat_42 On On
session.bug_compat_warn On On
session.cache_expire 180 180
session.cache_limiter nocache nocache
session._domain no value no value
session._lifetime 0 0
session._path / /
session._secure Off Off
session.entropy_file no value no value
session.entropy_length 0 0
session.gc_divisor 100 100
session.gc_maxlifetime 1440 1440
session.gc_probability 1 1
session.name PHPSESSID PHPSESSID
session.referer_check no value no value
session.save_handler files files
session.save_path .\ .\
session.serialize_handler php php
session.use_ On On
session.use_only_ Off Off
session.use_trans_sid Off Off

Thanks
Andrew
