jquery-session-plugin's Issues

Session in PHP

this plugin is working fine but when i wants to get the session value in php using $_SESSION[] its not available...

I thing there is only one season exists at once and if this plugin is able to set that session then no matter what it should be accessible by another programming language also...

When I am trying to print print_r( $_SESSION ) in php which is to show all session variables and there values its showing an empty Array()

I am confused if the way this plugin is working is there any real session exists or its just saving some values while moving from page to page.

At the end is there any way to access $.session in PHP?

cookies[i].split is not a function

Hi

After adding the script to my project i have the following error visible in the firebug console:
TypeError: cookies[i].split is not a function

thrown by "var kv = cookies[i].split('=');" inside "_initCache: function()"

Situation as is: there are no cookies from that domain.
May it be that there is an error handling missing, if cookies is not filled correctly?

[object Object] error

This session jquery is working fine for me. But the problem i faced when i try to get the paying amount, i get output as "[object Object] instead of amount, i.e "100, 70" etc.
here is my code for paying amount session:

<script> var amount_to_pay = $('#amount_to_pay').html(final_price); $.session.set('amount_to_pay', str_amount_to_pay); var session_amount_to_pay = $.session.get('amount_to_pay'); console.log(session_amount_to_pay+" is the amount for "+id); </script>

HTTP error code 431 after long time of usage

The random _id in the name creates 100+ different cookies over time and sooner or later leads to HTTP error code 431 Request Header Fields Too Large and site stops responding...

I changed this:

if (!window.name) {
     window.name = Math.random();
}

to this:

if (!window.name) {
     window.name = 'fixedName';
}

which fixes it.

Is there a specific reason you are using the random name?

Alex
