Sessions

Upon a successful login I decided to implement sessions into my project. A session is ' a way to store information, in variables to be used across multiple pages. Unlike a cookie, the information is not stored on the users computers'.

I decided to include sessions in my project so the user is aware they are logged in. The use of session will make it more suitable when a user begins to play games and keeps track of the score and what user is playing so the database will be updated correctly.
