<html>
<head>
<title>New Page 1</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
$myvar = "hello world!";
session_start();
session_register("myvar");
echo "Say: $http_session_vars["myvar"]";
$result = session_is_registered("$http_session_vars["myvar"]");
echo "$result";
?>
</body>
</html>

This should set the session, print the contents of myvar and return 1 to the existence of myvar but instead i get a Parse error: parse error, expecting T_STRING' orT_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in cookie.php on line 13

Help! 😕

thanks

Try this...

nnichols

your session_is_registered() line should be -

$result = session_is_registered('myvar');

🙁 It didn't work, I just get:

Say:

and that's it, no error just no variable printed

any ideas?

PS. When u have ($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myvar']), does it matter
whether you use quotes ["myvar "] or inverted commas ['myvar']

Try :

print_r($HTTP_SESSION_VARS);

It will print all the contents of $HTTP_SESSION_VARS. Tell me if you see something...

demonicfoetus

it prints out...

Array ( )

so it looks like there session values aren't being set

any thoughts?

suntra

What if you print $_SESSION ?

print_r($_SESSION);

demonicfoetus

🙁 nope, still get Array()

after youv'e at least tried to register the session, then go to a page with this code in it:

<?php

foreach($_SESSION as $k => $v)
{
   echo "".$k." == ".$v."<br>\n";
}

?>

demonicfoetus

nope, nothing appears on the page, doH!
