sessions & url tagging

[Anon]

Hello Group

Is it possible to have a line like this in one page

<A HREF=\'view_records.php? var=\"something\" \'>

which then updates a session variable var of the same name
on the next page.

I have tried this and it ignores the assignment.

Is it a problem with the scope of the session variable and the scope of the variable passed using URL tagging?

Any thoughts or insights would be kindly received

Try it without putting quotes around the actual variable value in the URL, and without a space after the question mark. Other than that, any scoping problems would depend on your code, but both the querystring var and the session var will be global.
