$_SESSION maximum size

[Hans Ebert]

Hi,
I'm storing an uploaded jpeg in the session :
$_SESSION['image'] = base64_encode(f ile_get_content s("..."));
But that data is truncated. How to prevent this ?

Another way would be to copy the file into a temp folder
and delete it when the session is destroyed.
How do I get notified when session is destroyed ?

Best regards
Thorsten

It should be perfectly possible to store the image in your session. It
is weird, but possible.
You must make some mistake when displaying it.
ARe you using base64_decode() when serving the image?

You don't with default session.
You can build your own sessionhandler and gain full control:
Read on here if you want to take that route:
