Is possible to keep session even after the browser is closed?

Question

Could anyone tell how to maintain a session (in PHP) so that the session contains are preserved and are accessible even after the browser is restarted.

In general a session expires with the closing of a browser, but I want the session NOT TO BE CLOSED so that the session data's can be accessed the next time the browser is used.

Answer 1

Use session_set_cookie_parameters() to give the session cookie a non-zero lifetime before starting the session, or set session.cookie_lifetime to non-zero.
