About session in php4.30 problem?

bombshell

In php-manural :

If you are using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS/$_SESSION and disable register_globals, do not use session_register(), session_is_registered() and session_unregister().

If you enable register_globals, session_unregister() should be used since session variables are registered as global variables when session data is deserialized. Disabling register_globals is recommended for both security and performance reason.

In php4.30 register_globals =off ,So i don't use session_register(),because i use $SESSION in shoping cart.I want use $SESSION ,what register session in php4.30 and register_globals=off? Please help me resolve this problem! thanks!

I am using the same version of php as you - the way to do this is as follows

$user['name'] = "mikey mouse";
$user['age'] = "30";
$user['id'] = "12";

$_SESSION['user'] = $user;

Now if the session does not exist then it will be created automatically for you as explained ]Here

What's your problem?

$SESSION['foo'] = 'this';
$SESSION['bar'] = 'that';
$_SESSION['baz'] = 'the other';
?>

I problem is in user define function whether or not announce global when I use $_SESSION

example:
<?
session_start();
$SESSION['foo'] = 'this';
$SESSION['bar'] = 'that';
$SESSION['baz'] = 'the other';
function Update()
{
global $SESSION;
......
}
......
?>

The obvious place to look
Note: As of PHP 4.1.0, $SESSION is available as global variable just like $POST, $GET, $REQUEST and so on. Unlike $HTTP_SESSION_VARS, $SESSION is always global. Therefore, you do not need to use the global keyword for $SESSION.
