-===== Session Cookie Regeneration =====
-The method ''adodb_session_regenerate_id()'' will dynamically change the current session id with a newly generated one and update database. This currently only works with cookies. Useful to improve security by reducing the risk of session-hijacking. See this article on Session Fixation for more info on the theory behind this feature.
-==== Usage ====
-<code php>
-include 'adodb/adodb-session2.php';
-session_start();
-/*
-* Approximately every 10 page loads, reset cookie for safety.
-* This is extremely simplistic example, better
-* to regenerate only when the user logs in or changes
-* user privilege levels.
-*/
-if ((rand()%10) == 0)
-    adodb_session_regenerate_id();
-</code>
-This function calls ''session_regenerate_id()'' internally or simulates it if the function does not exist.
