a little strange one

[itandme]

Hi!

I am using a little javascript, to through a query string, defines how wide my main website table should be, depending on the users resolution.

<!--
if (screen.width <= 800) {
document.location = "index2.php?table=95";
}

if (screen.width > 800) {
document.location = "index2.php?table=75";
}

//-->

and when the tables comes, i do width="<? echo $table; ?>".

this works just fine, and it reacts as it should. but then to keep the $table through the pages, i defines it as a session in the beginning of the page

session_start();
session_register("table");

but now suddenly, its not working. when the session is there, it just wont work, the table wont react on the correct way. Its just like the var $table is dropped when the session comes in.

help. 😕

it works the first time because you're just parsing it to index2.php, nothing to do with the session.

If you want to retreive the $table value, you have to grab the value out of your session on top of each page. (make an include file) eg. I use cookies so on top of each page I would have:

$table = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["table"];

i set the index file to 'setcookie("table", $table,time()+3600);' and the rest of the pages to '$table = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["table"];'.

but thats not really working. it doesnt pass to the other pages.

hmmm I don't know what to tell you. That all looks right to me, double check everything, make sure it is creating the cookie also.
