Session unregister problem

[tomgone]

Hi all,

Further to a recent posting (form variable passing/validation) I have another query. What I do is to use an associative array for the form variables as I might want to pass them back in case of error, so I register an array with the variables which are erroneous. Then the form is redisplayed with correct values still in place and errors highlighted. The use fills in the errors and validation takes place again. The problem I seem to have is that although I unregister some variables, including an array, when I register it again, it seems to remember some of the old values (almost like caching)?

Any ideas

I'm having a similar problem in that I try unregistering the session variables and finishing the session but when the user goes back to their basket all the items are still in there! Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I've checked the php manual and it just seems to say this is buggy and gives no real help!

Thanx

Checked all docs as well, and the really annoying thing is that if I put an exit call in the .php script after unregistering the variable and then check the php session file on the server, it has indeed been emptied. But as with your problem, as soon as I register/use the variables again, the value re-appear?

Only way I have around it now is to set manually set all the values to "" or similar. Annoying indeed. If no-one knows, I might get in touch with PHP people and see if this indeed is a bug?
