ID: 7772 Updated by: sas Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: *Session related Assigned To: Comments: The paragraph you quote only refers to the time of reinstantiating variables. Registering a session variable does not cause $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["foo"] and $foo to become associated in any way. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-11-12 20:28:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apache/1.3.14 (Unix) PHP/4.0.3pl1 # "If both track_vars and register_globals are enabled, then the globals variables and the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS entries will reference the same value." - PHP Manual. # In the next example $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[xyzzy] can only be read, if it's written, the new value is lost, it doesn't get saved through requests. # Besides that, setting $xyzzy to something isn't reflected in its $HTTP_SESSION_VARS counterpart until the next request. session_register("xyzzy"); $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[xyzzy] = 'nothing'; $xyzzy = 'something'; # Here, $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[xyzzy] is equal to 'nothing'. $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[xyzzy] = 'somethingelse'; # Here, $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[xyzzy] is equal to 'somethingelse'. # At the next request, $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[xyzzy] will be equal to 'something'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
