session_register in function

[Anon]

I would like to session_register an array produced in a function which is included in main php page.How do I get the session varible's value in main page and other page ?
Please give me some advices,Thanx!

I do as following in the include file:
<?
function test($fff) {
...
$field=array(..);
$seri_field=serialize($field);
session_register("seri_field");

...
...
}
?>

and in the main page :
<?
...
test($fff);..
$unseri_field=unserilize($seri_field);
echo $unseri_field[0];
..
?>

I can't get any value in the main page!
maybe what I can do is only to return the array to main page and session manage in the main page?

Check out the manual.

session_register("myvar") registers the variable with name "myvar".

so this:

$a="bla";
session_register($a);

registers a variable with name "bla". It does not store the string "bla"

i dont think you need to serialize variables to store them in sessions, php will do it for you automatically. As for creating a session variable inside the function, here is how I do it:

function foo() {
global $myvar;

 session_register("myvar");
 $myvar = array(..);

}

this works for me all the time

I "agree".
I register arrays as session variables inside functions with no problem. And I never use the serialize function.

However, I had some problems with doing this in included files, so what I did was that I copied the code in the included file an wrote it in the same page where I used the include() or require() function previously.

Don't ask me why. I might be wrong and confused, but as they say: "don't fix what ain't broke"
