ok, i have a webpage with an iframe, im creating a link script, so i can track my links. to do this im using URL variables, ie: page.php?p=7&l=1
where p goes into an array, $page[$p] that variable prints the page to be loaded in the iframe src and loaded in the middle. the l variable is the link variable, used again in an array for the link redirection.
im using a php session, the first thing i do on my host page is start a session, name it and then register my variable (l) so it can be used inside the iframe on another page.
i have one problem, it takes 2 clicks on the link for the l to be assigned the value for the link. without the session_register(l); the value is assigned first time, but only the host page has the value making the link script useless! ive also had a problem with changing a registered variable, i cant change the value without unsetting it, or unregistering it. can anyone help?

Thats the host page (index2.php)
<?php
session_start(); ## starts the session with the $l value in (hopefully) ##
include("../bin/vars.inc.php"); ## includes the file holding the links array ##
if ($l != "") { ## asks if theres a link value present ##
#header("Location: $links[$1]");# just a test measure to see if its working ##
echo $links[$l]; ## just another test measure to see if its working ##
session_unregister(l); ## resets $l (hopefully) ##
}
session_unregister(l); ## resets $l (hopefully) ##
?>
thats my link script, not finished yet but it needs to work before its developed!
thanks in advance
Daf.
