Sessions

[Anon]

Hi there ,

What I do now is parsing hidding variables from each php.doc to another
and it is working ok but it is asked much adminwork.

Can I store these variables in a separate file and then access it whenever I needed to. The problem is that the variables are changing sometimes.

I looked everywhere for example-code and theory about sessions etc... but I did 'n t found a clear answer to it.

Who understand me and can help me out ?

Thanks very much

Gerry

A session is use to store variables. You can open a session from where you want in your site (the most common is at the first page :-)), and then you can access those variable from each pages you open... It MUST be the first lines you write!

//index.php
session_start();
$myVar = "Here am I";
session_register("myVar");
/ You just opened a session and stored a variable into ($myVar)/

//page1.php
session_start();
echo $my_var; //--> will print "Here am I"
$myVar = "Here is my new value";

//page2.php
session_start();
echo $myVar; //-->will print "Here is my new Value"...

and so on. The only thing you have to keep in mind is tpo session_start(); at the top of each of the pages you want to access stored variables...

Hope that was what you were looking for ;-)
