[Custom Mysql.inc.php]

Hi I recent combined both "mysql.inc.php" for Effortless Ecommerce and Advance PHP. When I run the script (typing it in the browser of course)  it returns this:

 

Warning: mysqli_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, string given in C:\xampp\htdocs\day2\mysql.inc.php on line 94

Warning: mysqli_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, string given in C:\xampp\htdocs\day2\mysql.inc.php on line 94

Warning: mysqli_query() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in C:\xampp\htdocs\day2\mysql.inc.php on line 95

Warning: mysqli_close() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in C:\xampp\htdocs\day2\mysql.inc.php on line 58

 

Now when I go into to the php.ini.file (xampp) and I set "session.auto=1" (zero "0" is default) it works. I want to know why it doesn't work when I leave it on default. I've combined db_sessions.inc.php  from PHP Adance OOP and mysql.inc.php from Effortless.

I would like to store the users sessions in a separate table.
