well, i just read some of the stuff on that link you gave, to the singleton stuff...
if i understood it right..

their example:

Code:

<?php

static function borrowBook() {
if (FALSE == self::$isLoanedOut){
    if (NULL == self::$book){
        self::$book = new BookSingleton();
    }
    self::$isLoanedOut = TRUE;
        return self::$book;
}else{
        return NULL;
    }
}

?>

is the key to do the loading right

so in my case, i would call and set my session class in this mannor, and use it in my user class, which is extended from my mysql class...
using something like their example

Code:

<?php
function borrowBook(){
$this->borrowedBook = BookSingleton::borrowBook();
    if ($this->borrowedBook == NULL) {
        $this->haveBook = FALSE;
    }
    else
        {
            $this->haveBook = TRUE;
    }
}
?>

right? obviously not THAT code, but i've already got an idea how to set it up... i'll go play with it, and come back and see what someone has to say
