Hi,

Had a similar problem when building upload progress bar. Initially i
used cookies but that had a few minor hiccups. What you can do is to
encode your variables into the query string. This is
accessible as part
of the env. variables. Since you are familiar with C++ you
will get the
hang of PHP very quickly.

oh and btw the correct way to set a cookie is with
session_register(),
$_SESSION is used for retrieval.



Er, nope. If you have a version of PHP with the $_SESSION array, then you use it for both setting *and* retrieving -- session_register() and friends should *not* be used in this case. (Indeed, there are circumstances where the combination of session_register() with $_SESSION gives broken behaviour.)


Cheers!

Mike
