Make a cookie that will login your user every time (s)he visits your site. If that’s what you really want.
Know that when your user closes the browser, the session will not “really” end. Since HTTP is stateless, your server will not know when the browser is closed. Hence, this will not end the session.
So, if you want the session to never end, do as what I said in the first paragraph. But think about the consequences when your users are at a public terminal, like an airport. If somebody logs in your site and closes the browser, and somebody else visits your very site, this person will have previous persons’ credentials. Do you really want that?
