GET Vars

Anon

Hello. I was wondering if it were possible to append variables to the Query String for a GET method. As of now what i do is create a hidden field with the value for the variable that i need. What i would like to do is to progmatically append a variable to the quwery string so the user never sees the variable. Any ideas or input?

Thanks-

you can use sessions or cookies pass the variable.

Sessions as mentioned above would do the trick.

Also if there is alot fo data a mysql database would work well.

an example on setting a session variable

<?php
// initialize the session
session_start();

// method 1
$myvalue = "Hello, this is a session variable.";
session_register("myvalue");

// method 2
$_SESSION["myvalue"] = "Hello, this is a session variable.";

// same as method 2, but for PHP lower than 4.1.0
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["myvalue"] = "Hello, this is a session variable.";

// now to reference to this variable, use $SESSION or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS
print $SESSION["myvalue"];
?>
?>
