session_register variables

warmasice

I have the following code in my admin.php script:

session_register(id);

...

$id = 1;

...

$tempid = 22;

...

$id = $tempid;

echo("<a href=\"manageaccount.php\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to manage user account</a>");

Once the new window has opened, $id with a value of 22 will be used in the manageaccount.php script since it is a session registered variable.

BUT, is there anyway of reverting $id to its original value (of 1) once that new window has been closed? ...this is so i can continue using $id with the value of 1, in the admin.php script.

I hope someone can help, thank you.

..have you tryed to do it with another variable like $id2 = $tempid and use that one in that new window?

That way the $id is going to be 1 all along...

Unfortunately i cant! it must be $id. I wont bore you into the details why!!

I need to $id to revert back to the value of 1 when the target="_blank" window closes!

is that even possible?

devinemke

$id = 1;
$id_backup = $id;

$id = 22;

// do something with id

$id = $id_backup; // back to 1

that doesnt work because $id is back to 1, but in the new window i would want it to be 22!

ok lets throw out the window wot i've previously been asking. i've thought of another idea which would resolve my little problem...

is there anyway to populate the fields of a form in login.html by passing in the values from admin.php?

<form name="login" action="login.php" method="post">

Email: <input type="text" name="email">
Password: <input type="password" name="password">

<input type="submit" value="ENTER">

i would want the email and password fields to be populated by the variables past to it from admin.php

is it even possible to populate fields in a .html form, from a .php file?
