PHP's built in session stuff is confusing you behind the scenes.
php.ini holds the simple answer to changing session timeout (it can
time out if the browser is not making any connections, even if browser
is not closed). php.ini is also the place to mess with cookie vs url
SESSID traveling. You may find it interesting to make your session

session_set_save_handler and a few more methods.
