Hagan,<br><br>many thanks to you !<br>I have created a /session directory at the same level as my /pmwiki directory and this solves the problem : it now finds it and writes the php tracking I guess.<br><br>This way I could set a global 'edit' and 'attr' password and I dont have to do one for each page.
<br><br>Is this in the FAQ ? if not I think it would be very usefull for ignorant people like me :) !!<br><br>thanks again<br><br>Gilbert<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/25/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">gilbert n

<br><br>thank you very much for your answer.<br>So I understand this behaviour is due to my webserver (my wiki is @ my web page hosted by <a href="http://www.free.fr" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
www.free.fr</a> ) <br><br>so two questions :
<br><br>a) how can I set a pmwiki variable to avoid the webserver to do session-tracking ? (is it a good idea)<br><br>or b) how can I set up the directory to write-in directly so it is a valid one ? Is there a special variable in pmwiki for this ?
<br><br>thanks again for your help<br><span class="sg"><br>Gilbert</span><div><span class="e" id="q_1149b55368cbd531_2"><br><br><br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/25/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">H. Fox</b>
