passing variables between pages

dmikester1

I am doing some work on one php page that is generating an array. Then I need to pass that array to a second page that then uses the info from that array to output an image. However I would like to display text along with the image, so someone told me I needed to include the following line in the page with the outputted text: <img src="image.php/id=$imagenr">. But if I do that, how do I pass the variables to image.php? Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi DMikester,

My bad.

Typo on my side.

The var is passed to the imahe.php automatically, but the code I gave you should have been:

However.. I am not sure. I do not think that you can pass an array this way..

The id is available in the page image.pgp through:

$id = $_GET[id];

dmikester1,

Can you post the code that you currently have so we can take a look at it?

Here is my code. At the bottom I make an array called $countryCount and fill it. I need that array over at text.php to figure out how to draw the image and then display it. How can I pass it over?
Thanks
Mike

<?
require_once("ip2country.php");
include ("config.php");

mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpass);
@mysql_select_db($dbname) or die( "Unable to select database");

$query="SELECT * FROM WT_lastvisitors";
$result=mysql_query($query);

$num=mysql_numrows($result);

mysql_close();

$countryCount = array();

for($i = 0; $i<$num; $i++)
{
$ip=mysql_result($result, $i, "ip");
echo("ip: $ip ");
$iplook = new ip2country($ip);

if($iplook->LookUp())
{
$country = $iplook->Country;
print "found a country</br>";
}
print "country: $country</br>";

if(array_key_exists($country, $countryCount))
$countryCount[$country] = $countryCount[$country] + 1;

else
$countryCount[$country] = 1;

}
print_r($countryCount);

?>
<img src="text.php/id=$imagenr">

How does the user get to text.php from THIS page?

If it is via a url, you could do something like this:

<a href="text.php?countryCount=<?php echo $countryCount; ?>">Click here</a>

Then on the text.php page you could do something like this:

$countryCount = $_GET['countryCount'];
