$_session['user_id']=4;
Where this values of session is saved.. means in some file?? where??
A:
By default I think php stores its session information on the server, although you can override this to store session information in cookies on the client side.

Storing "session" data in cookies is pointless.

And yes, I believe this information is stored in a file on the server using a generated alphanumeric string as it's name. (this is the PHPSESSID, and you can choose where the file is stored using the session_save_path method)

@Crozin: I didn't say it was a good idea, I just said it was possible. :)

A:
Yes, they are stored in a temporary file somewhere on the server your website resides on. You can specify that setting in php.ini with session.save_path.
You could also use the function session_save_path to set and get session path from your script.
Syntax:
string session_save_path ([ string $path ] )
session_save_path — Get and/or set the current session save path

PHP saves sessions in files. The location of these files is determined in php.ini by the session.save_path setting.
