ID: 15289 Updated by: derick Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment:
1. Using global in a non-function scope doesn't make any sense. 2. When doing 'global $counter' you're setting a reference from $counter to $GLOBALS['counter'] and thus breaking the reference to the session hashes Not a bug (but rather a bug in older versions). Making this bogus. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-29 22:13:11] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Global variable will be registered in session only first time. When you will be refreshing page with following code, it will count only to 2. <?php session_start(); global $counter; //when you remove this row, all will work properly session_register("counter"); $counter++; echo $counter; ?> When you remove row with "global $counter;" page will count to 3, 4, 5... Both variants of code works properly with PHP 4.0.6 (on Windows 2000). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15289&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
