Yeah, there were two points I was trying to get across:
a) If the client has a session cookie applicable to a request that it is
making, it sends the cookie; and
b) If the server handles the request with php that invokes the session
handler, then the session timeout will get updated
If both above conditions (a and b) are true, it doesn't matter what's
being requested (pdf files, favicon, linked style sheets, javascript
files, images, archives of some sort whether compressed or not, ajax
requests etc), the session timer gets updated in the process of servicing
the request and an updated session cookie is issued.
But I thought I made it fairly clear originally that I was only talking
about cases where the request was served by a php script that invoked the
session handler in the process.
