Thanks Till. I'll look into that.
If anyone's interested, I uploaded a devvers' release of the CMS I'm working on. It doesn't contain any template layout at all, yet, so it's strictly for playing with installation/administration at the moment, and to allow some coders to pick apart my code. It can be found at

Quick question about sessions (as I haven't found the info in my searches yet): When does a session end? Obviously I can set up a link to end the session (or log-out), but that isn't any different than a cookie, is it? If I navigate away from the page with the session, does that end the session?
