Variable scope

[Anon]

Can i declare a variable either as a user, application and domain variable (which same with ASP) ???

Let say i got first.php and second.php, the first.php will retrieve a value from database and store into on user variable, if this variable havent purge the value, i still able to view the value of the variable in second.php. how can i do that ??

Thanks for answering./

As far as I know, PHP doesn't have direct equavilents of "application" and "domain" variables. "user" variables can be passed (via url or forms) or put into the session management object (php4 or phplib).

For persistant application or domain variables you will have to roll your own scheme (not that difficult to do actually, especially if you have a database server to store them in.)

Cold Fusion offers these types of variable management built in as well.
