Re: [PHP] Session Varaible Problem

 Are you calling session_start() on the subsequent pages you want to be
 part of the session?


No I was not. That was the problem. Thanks Rasmus.

[PHP] Session Varaible Problem

[Randy Phillips]

Hi,

I have tried every example of creating a session variable I could find on
php.net and have had the same results with all of them. The session
variables get set on the initial page but that's the only place I can access
them.

I am new to php so I'm sure I have just overlooked something.

Here is my latest attempt. It's a simple login page that starts a session
when a user successfully logs in:

$connect...

$sql ...

list($id,$first_name) = mysql_fetch_row($sql);
session_start();
if (!session_is_registered('user_id')) {
session_register('user_id');
$user_id = $id;
session_register('user_name');
$user_name = $first_name;
} else {
echo pSession is set and should now be availalbe on all pages via a
cookie. At least that what I expected.;
}

Sadly, these vars are available only on this page.

echo pID: $user_id;

echo pName: $user_name;

Mac OSX
Apache
PHP 4+

Thanks,
