[Resolved] PHP dynamic page, how to use session instead of passd parms?

[cgchris99]

I have a website that uses DW,PHP, & Mysql to display some dynamic information.

Currently the search page has two fields on it. One is State and the other is Month. This information is then passed via URL parameters to the results page.

How can I use sessions to pass these parameters instead?

I don't want these parameters displayed on the URL.

Thanks for any info

To start or use a session you must use session_start(); right at the top of your script.

Eg,

<?php
session_start();
?>

You can then store any number of variables in the session superglobal, like so....

<?php
session_start()
$_SESSION[state]="Timbuck Two";
$_SESSION[month]="December";
print "The variables have been registered";
?>

To recall them...

<?php
session_start()
print "The State was ".$_SESSION[state];
print "The month was ".".$_SESSION[month];
?>

You are awesome. I was hoping it would be that simple.

Thanks so much.

Ok, one new question. How do I keep the search page from putting the parameters on the URL line when I jump to the results page?

Thanks
