[RESOLVED] PHP Session

[maco]

Hi been trying to used this functionality but having some problems . .

program 1

<?php
session_start();
session_register('sestown');
$sestown = "wicklow1";
?>

program 2

<?php
session_start();
echo "sestown = $sestown\n";

?>

when it goes to program it does not recognise my $sestown variables.

error message of;
Undefined variable: sestown in C:\server\Apache2\htdocs\localtown\logon.php on line 7
sestown =

can somebody please help me on this . . .

better try

program 1

<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['sestown'] = 'wicklow1';
?>

program 2

<?php
session_start();
echo "sestown = {$_SESSION['sestown']}";
?>

session_register functions require that register_globals be on, which is no longer the default in php.
now its always best to use the $_SESSION array for portability.
