[RESOLVED] Sessions into Array -> Need help

[MrPotatoes]

i'm having problems with putting a session into an array and then accessing the values within that variable. the session is a multidimentional array as well. here is the code:

init.php

    

    session_start();

$SPUDS_SESS = $_SESSION;

$_SESSION['member']['logged_in']                = true;

$SESS_ARRAY = set_userinfo_array();

function set_userinfo_array()
{
    global $SPUDS_SESS;

    /*$SPUDS_SESS['member'] = array   (
                                        'usr_lvl' => 10,
                                        'usr_id' => 100,
                                        'status' => 'banned'
                                    );*/

    $SPUDS_SESS['member']['usr_lvl']                = 10;
    $SPUDS_SESS['member']['usr_id']                 = 100;
    $SPUDS_SESS['member']['status']                 = 'banned';

    $SPUDS_SESS['personal']['session_id']           = session_id();
    $SPUDS_SESS['personal']['pwd']                  = 'password';
    $SPUDS_SESS['personal']['displayname']          = 'taters';

    return $SPUDS_SESS;
}

index.php

include 'init.php';

if ($_SESSION['member']['logged_in'])
{        
    echo $SESS_ARRAY .'<br>';
    echo $SESS_ARRAY[0] .'<br>';
    echo $SESS_ARRAY[0][0] .'<br>';;

    /*echo "Your member level is: <B>" .          $SPUDS_SESS['member']['usr_lvl']. "</B><BR>";
    echo "Your mysql user id is: <B>" .         $SPUDS_SESS['member']['usr_id']. "</B><BR>";
    echo "Your member status is: <B>" .         $SPUDS_SESS['member']['status']. "</B><BR>";

    echo "Your personal session id is: <B>" .   $SPUDS_SESS['personal']['session_id']. "</B><BR>";
    echo "Your personal pwd is: <B>" .          $SPUDS_SESS['personal']['pwd']. "</B><BR>";
    echo "Your displayname is: <B>" .           $SPUDS_SESS['personal']['displayname']. "</B><BR>";
    */
}

i commented out some stuff because i wasn't returning in the set_user_info function initally and that's when it worked.

thanx for your help

$my_array = array();
function set_info($array, $parent='')
{
  foreach($array as $key=>$val)
  {
    if(is_array($val))
    {
      $my_array[] = set_info($val, $key);
    }
    else
    {
      $my_array[$key] = $val;
    }
  }
  return $my_array;
}
?>

That should work, and it works recursively.

thanx. thru further research and coding (test scripts 😃) i figured out that assigning a variable to a session is just not good coding. so i'll specifically use the $_SESSION['thing'] code instead.

good thing i'm making a class then 😃
