[PHP] using sessions instead of cookie
I have never used sessions before. How do I change the follow from COOKIES
to SESSIONS in php (I do not know how to set a session)...
At present the script uses an iframe with cookies but I believe if I use
sessions I can leave out the iframe.
http://www.ecurry.net/menu.phps
http://www.ecurry.net/order2.phps
The scipt adds a name and count to the cookie array, then works out the
total using the order2 script.
if (isset($add)){
${$food} = intval($_COOKIE['cookie'][$food]);
ob_clean();
$new= $$food+1;
include('names.php');
setcookie(cookie[$food], $new $name);
}
;
if (isset($minus)){
${$food} = intval($_COOKIE['cookie'][$food]);
if (${$food} == 0) {
}
else {;
ob_clean();
$new= $$food-1;
include('names.php');
setcookie(cookie[$food], $new $name);
}
}
and the order2 script...
if (isset($_COOKIE['cookie'])) {
foreach ($_COOKIE['cookie'] as $name = $quantity) {
if ($name == pakora) {$sub_total = $sub_total + ($priceA *
$quantity); $pricecode= $priceA; check_zero($quantity, $pricecode);}
if ($name == haggis_fritter) {$sub_total = $sub_total + ($priceB *
$quantity); $pricecode= $priceB;check_zero($quantity, $pricecode);}
}}

[PHP] Using sessions with register globals off
I've looked through the docs and past posts but I'm still a bit confused.
How do I translate the following into code that can be used with
register_globals set off.
Assuming there's a preceding page that has created the session 'name' and
registered the var 'order' with the 'name' session.
session_name('name');
session_register('order');

[PHP] using SESSIONS to store page 2 page variables

[PHP] Using Sessions under Win98/Apache
I've been developing a PHP driven site that will ultimately run under Solaris and Linux - no problems there. But I set up a small development/test environment on my laptop running Win98. Downloaded the PHP binary (v 4.1.2) along with Apache (v 1.3.24) and MySQL. Everything works greatalmost. Sessions aren't working for some reason. Yes, they're enabled in my php.ini file (and running a php_info() confirms that session support is enabled). The odd thing is, is that it will create the 'sess_038d7' file. Just no data goes into it. Yes, I'm running the exact same code against it that I'm running against the Solaris and Linux PHP. Is there something different about the Windows version that I don't know that is causing my sessions to not work?

Re: [PHP] Using Sessions under Win98/Apache
You probably want to get 4.2, or 4.2.1 if it's out. How are you registering variables for the session? Is register_globals on or off in your php.ini. If it's off, you register a variables just by using $_SESSION[var] = value; instead of using session_register(var); $var = value; If register globals is on, then use the second method with session_register(). This is all after you call session_start, of course. ---John Holmes... - Original Message - From: Edward Marczak [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 12:04 PM Subject: [PHP] Using Sessions under Win98/Apache I've been developing a PHP driven site that will ultimately run under Solaris and Linux - no problems there.

Re: [PHP] Using Sessions under Win98/Apache
On 5/15/02 3:47 PM, 1LT John W. Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED] pressed
the keys forming the message:
I'm not sure what it could be then. If you try a simple test script, doing
nothing but starting a session and setting a value, does it work?
No.
If that still doesn't work, then definitely upgrade to 4.2.1.
The reality is, why should I? I want to match my production environment as
closely as possible. Is this working for other people or not (under
Win98/WinApache)? Are you saying that sessions never worked under this
configuration until v 4.2.1?
Load this script up:
?
session_start();
if(isset($_SESSION[var]))
{ echo variable is already set; }
else
{ $_SESSION[var] = one; }
echo pClick a href= . $_SERVER[SCRIPT_NAME] . here/a;
?
It remembers the variable for the duration of the script. Once the page is
reloaded, since the session is never written, I get nothing.
I appreciate your help on this. However, my frustration is that it's not my
code, it's something with the system setup - which seems right!

[PHP] Using sessions
i'm having some trouble using sessions.
first of all i have to use php 4.0.6.
When i use $HTTP_SESSION_VARS, the session variable isn't
being saved.
for example:
if(!isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['id'])){
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['id'] = 0;
}
else{
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['id']++;
}
echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['id'];
every time i refresh the browser it returns 0.
i have version 4.1.6(i tink. it's the last one)at home and it works fine.
but if i use the session_register it all works ok.
i've tried to use global $HTTP_SESSION_VARS but nothing changed.
could someone help
thanks

RE: [PHP] Using sessions
Just a guess but would using session_register(myvar); instead of
registering directly to the global list make any difference?

[PHP] using sessions and include
Martin, are ya out there? Does anyone know anything about sessions? (An
post reply would be handy :)
I am using session_register. I have:
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/index.html
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/index.html.phps
Which submits to:
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/postcard.php
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/postcard.phps
postcard.php is supposed to pass data to display_image.php
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/display_image.php
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/display_image.phps
The problem is that display_image.php loses my data coming from
index.html
}else{
include display_image.php;
}
But when I try to debug and remove the \\ on lines 3 4
//include(display_image.php);
//exit;
display_image.php will display my data correctly from index.html
Can anyone help? What am I doing wrong?

RE: [PHP] Using sessions
An idea is to put the session id in your web page addresses. e.g. http://level1/level2/12123234234234234234/test.php Then setup your web server to filter all addresses to remove the session id from the address before it is displayed in the browser window (you can set apache to do this) so the user won't see it. You can then write a little code to get the session id from the address (the full address including session should be passed to your app). And then recreate the session etc.. I've got some code at home demonstrating this technique. I can send it to you later of you want it. -Stewart -Original Message- From: Rosen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 14 March 2001 08:52 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Using sessions Thanks, but cookies are disabled !
