π Key Session Concepts
- Always call
session_start()
before any HTML output to use sessions.
$_SESSION
is a superglobal array to store session data.
- Session data persists across page reloads for the same user.
- Sessions are stored on the server; the browser holds only a session ID cookie.
- Use sessions for user login states, carts, preferences, and more.
π‘ Tip: Remember to session_destroy()
to log users out or clear session data when done.
