How do you pass session variables from folder to folder?

[malisa]

Hi people,

Here is my problem:

In folder A I have some scripts which are using the standard session functions (session_start(), session_register(), etc.). The session variables are nicely accessible in folder A.

Now I have a subsite in folder B and want to access the folder A session variables in there. I do my usual session_start() and I cannot get access to the session variables!

Can someone tell me why this is? Is it to do with PHP.ini file configuration or is it something else I am doing wrong?

Cheers,

Mirza

Please describe what you mean with "subsite". Are you accessing another (domain) virtual host, or are you only accessing a script from another directory like
www.somwhere.com/folder1/some.php
to
www.somwhere.com/anotherfolder/another.php

I have a folder on my domain:

www.mydomain.com/folderA - here the session variables passed from script to script work absolutely fine for as many scripts as I can think of.

But then in this area of the site www.mydomain.com/folderA/folderB I can no longer access the folder A's session variables and I am using the same session handling methodology as in the programming in folder A.

This is all entirely on one same server. No use of cookies. All sessions are server side. I am not using session ID stuff. All the session functions I use are session_start, session_register, session_unregister and session_destroy.

Hope this makes it clear.
