$Session, $Session_Id, $Session_Owner, and $Session_Timeout

Note: Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. The OO equivalent for the $Session, $Session_Id, $Session_Owner and $Session_Timeout function is to be entered.

These functions accept no arguments and return the requested value associated with the current open session.

$Session returns a 1 (if the user has a session currently open) or a 0 otherwise.

$Session_Id returns the ID of the currently open session (if there is one) or a null otherwise.

$Session_Owner returns the owner of the currently open session (if there is one) or a null otherwise. A value of asterisk (*) indicates that the currently open session is a public session.

$Session_Timeout returns the timeout value of the currently open session (if there is one) or a -1 otherwise.

For more information about sessions, see Sessions.
