Using PHP sessions with my android application to

I am trying to make a login script for my android application, the script will send my email and password to the PHP server, verify the login and then create a PHP session so that the user stays logged in. This is my code,

HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://server.com/login.php");
// Create a new HttpClient and Post Header
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();

public String login() {

    String userID = "";

    try {
        // Add your data
        List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("email", "e@e.com"));
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("password", "admin"));
        httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));

        // Execute HTTP Post Request
        HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);

        userID = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
        //Log.v("Login response", "" + userID);



    } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    }

    return userID;
}

This script successfully sends data to my server and my PHP successfully logs the user on. I have placed "HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();" outside my main login method. This has helped store the session until I call upon another class, then it just resets the session again. So I am wondering how I can alter the code so that "httpclient" is somehow stored so I can keep the session and stay logged into my server. Thank you!

Android Http get Session Cookie

Get the cookie session ID and use that cookie in the next requests to the server.

Another way is to make your php code echo a string containing the session_id in its response to login.Let the android app retrieve this id and store it. Any future requests can be made by using post method with sess_id=stored id

<?php
if(isset($_POST['sess_id']))
{
session_id($_POST['sess_id']); //starts session with given session id
session_start();
$_SESSION['count']++;
}
else {
session_start(); //starts a new session
$_SESSION['count']=0;
}
echo session_id();
?>
