Hello Everyone,

I want to emulate session objects (as opposed to variables). I stumbled 
upon creating multi-dimensional arrays, so I can do this:
$name = 'Bob';
$year = '2003';

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user][$year] = 'registered';
which gives $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['Bob']['2003'] = 'registered';
but  I want to append an options array in this so what I want is:

$options = array (
  'income' => 10000,
  'age' => 25                
);

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user][$options] = 'registered';
which gives:
  $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['Bob'][ [income]=10000, [age]=25 ] = 'registered';
but this doesn't work. Is there any way I can have "objects" saved in 
sessions?
There is, but I am not sure that is what you want. The reason you are 
getting the above result is because you are using $object (which is an 
array) as a key. Do you want an array element that holds the $options array?

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user]['options'] = $options;

You could then add elements to this array like this:

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user]['options']['registered'] = 1;

Is that what you are trying to do?
