retrieve php server session timeout -

i want retrieve value of session.gc_maxlifetime php server settings ( time after session expires after no activity ). of import : not want alter it, wish retrieve value ( maybe value different server server ) , want utilize php script made warn users properly, depending on settings of server.

thank you.

that's ini_get function comes in hand:

$maxlifetime = ini_get("session.gc_maxlifetime");

from manual read:

session.gc_maxlifetime integer session.gc_maxlifetime specifies number of seconds after info seen 'garbage' , potentially cleaned up. garbage collection may occur during session start (depending on session.gc_probability , session.gc_divisor).
