Code

<?php
function sess_gc($lifetime) {

  /*
  **  Be sure to adjust 'php_value session.gc_maxlifetime' to a large enough
  **   value.  For example, if you want user sessions to stay in your database
  **   for three weeks before deleting them, you need to set gc_maxlifetime
  **   to '1814400'.  At that value, only after a user doesn't log in after
  **   three weeks (1814400 seconds) will his/her session be removed.
