$Session, $Session_Id, $Session_Owner, and $Session_Timeout
Note: Many $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. There are no direct OO equivalents for the $Session, $Session_Id, $Session_Owner, and $Session_Timeout functions.
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.
