Is PHP able to maintain a session with devices that aren’t using a browser to communicate with the server? I know that any application is capable of adhering to the HTTP protocol, but for languages like Actionscript3 and Java that consist of HTTP request classes in their frameworks, do they send the necessary parameters for PHP to hold a session like it does with a browser?
Any HTTP client library can support cookies (which is how PHP maintains session token state across requests by default). Some will handle cookies automatically, some will require it to be turned on in a preference, some will just provide an API to access the headers (which include the cookies).
