PHP :Passing object from one page to ...

Anon

... another.

What is the best method ?

Creating a file ?
Create a temp table ?

... is there any other way ?

Anon

A cookie might work...but you would need to make the process secure.

Define "object"...

Anon

session_register("your_object_var_name");

You can then reference it on other pages using the same name (it will be a global variable).

Let me try to explain myself a lit bit better.
Let's say :

file1.php:
<?
include ('class.myclass.php');

$myvar = new MyClass;

$myvar->who = "me";
// this is where my doubt reside !!!
session_register ('myvar'); // like this ?
session_register ('who'); // like this dosent make sense, right.
?>

file2.php

echo " " . gettype($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar']);
echo "Session Var : " .$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar']['who'] . " "; //doesnt seem right !!!

echo "Session Var : " .$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar->who'] . " "; //doesnt seem right !!!

/ HOW ??? /

Thank you in advance fo all your help !

<?
include ('class.myclass.php');

$myvar = new MyClass;

$myvar->who = "me";
// this is where my doubt reside !!!
session_register ('myvar'); // like this ?

// don't need to register stuff in the class, it's already there.
// session_register ('who'); ?>

file2.php
// using an "&" you won't make a copy and you
// can work directly on the session var
$myvar = &$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar'];

// should print "object"
echo " " . gettype($myvar);

// use the object, "who" is not a session var
echo "Session Var : " .$myvar->who. " ";

//echo "Session Var : " .$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar']['who'] . " ";
//echo "Session Var : " .$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar->who'] . " ";
?>

Starting to make sense?

and what about :
PHP Fatal error: The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition myvar of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded before the session was started ???

I made session_register before the instatiation of the object !!

It is true that in file2.php the gettype returns object ... but with this error how can I retrieve the content of $myvar->who ??

I also read that with session_autostart=1 it wouldn't work ... But I disabled it and the results were the same.

Can you help-me a little more ?

Thanx in advance

You have to have the class defined in both pages. I would suggest having a file named like "MyClass.php". Then in the top of each file, (before you access the session) add the line:

include("MyClass.php");

It sounds like php is complaining that there is no definition for the class.
