session_encode and decode

[bink]

Hey!

Well I have some data for a shopping cart inside a session...$SESSION.

The session holds an array of data.

What I need to do is somehow pass the session data to another server. I read I can do this by using session_encode and then pass the variable in the URL or with a hidden form field?

If this is the case would I just do $var = session_encode($SESSION) and append it to the URL and then on the other side just do:

$SESSION = session_decode($var);

Would that preserve everything in the array etc?

Thanks for the help!

impossible, unless you used a form to post it.

Ok so I could use:

$var = session_encode($SESSION) and use a hidden field to post it to the new server.

Then on the other side just:

$SESSION = session_decode($var);

And it would restore everything in the session?

Thanks!
