[pmwiki-devel] asks password everytime i click edit

[Abhishek Gupta]

Hi All,
I am still not able to resolve the password issue. Like I mentioned in 
my last mail, the difference I noticed in session files for newer and 
old wiki is that the password is embedded in the session file for 
older(working version) and no password is embedded there in newer wiki.
Is there any way I could make sure the session file has password string 
in it so that it does not ask for password again and again?
Thanks,
Abhi.
