Why not store a cookie and session variable with a randomly generated ID
code (see uniqid function in manuals) then just check to see if one is equal
to the other on your "relogin" This way you don't record any "personal"
user information and can still do an autologin type script.

Sorry for the confusion, I should have changed the subject line to

Thanks.
