Hi Marc & all!
maybe we could continue to support "advanced auth" (http- style) but offer for PHP4 users a new session-based login panel?
IMHO sessions are too buggy to be use with such a widespead application. Search for the keyword "sessions" in the php bug database and you'll find there were and still exist many problems depending on: - directives in the php.ini file (for example session are unusable with register_globals set to off since php4.01); - the php4 sub-release; - and the server OS.
... I'm afraid so many parameters can't be taken into account to obtain a working session authentification system :(
Just my 2 cents, Loïc

Hi Loïc & list :)
I am biased towards Sessions, because at my site I run some Session-based applications, for about 15 users, since more that a year, with no problems. But I admit they are all on the same LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL PHP).
