Re: [PHP-DB] Re: [PHP] SESSIONS - SOLVED
No worries, Ethan. Sometimes we all try to outsmart ourselves by doing
something new.
Can I ask why you're opening a new window? Could the script not simply be
included in the original PHP code and avoid the window open? I ask because
pop up blockers may inhibit the functionality required. Or could you
perhaps do an ajax request back to the server to fire off the script?

Correct 100%. I feel rather stupid. A POST or GET will cause session
variables to be transferred.
From another post to the UNIX list, this works.

window.open(HandleFood.php,_self)

/script
and the SESSION variables transfer.
Sorry for bothering you with such trivia.

Ethan,
As was explained in another post, sessions DO NOT WORK when you call
shell_exec because the browser
the user is using holds the session cookie WHICH IS NOT AVAILABLE during
a shell_exec
This is totally expected behavior. If you need to call the second script
via a cron for example, no
session variables will exist. Your script would have to generate those
values (perhaps from a
database call to some table) to have those available in the script.
If your first script is calling shell_exec ( calling shell_exec from a
script to another script in
processing a browser call is just weird) then you would have to pass the
session values you need in
the shell_exec call as parameters.

Dear List -
I can make it work, but I do not know why???
I have two scripts, HandleWeight and HandleFood.
I call HandleWeight from a form ...
echo form method= 'post' action='HandleWeight.php';
echo centerstronginput type = 'submit' value=
'WEIGH'/strong/center;
echo /form;
and the session variables appear in HandleWeight.
I call HandleFood with a shell_exec,
$output = shell_exec('php HandleFood.php');
and the variables do not appear in HandleFood.
If I call it from a form, the variables appear.
What is going on??
TIA
