[PHP] Need Help With SESSIONS and ARRAYS
Hello, In an attempt to override the political anger in this mailing list I will tell you that I have already searched through documentations on how to solve the problem I'm having, to the extent of my skills in searching. Ok, now to the problem. I have an array submitted by a form, such as $item['name'], $item['desc'], $item['price'], etc, and I want to register only individual items of the array in a session, while still preserving the array structure -- i.e. while not breaking the array into separate variables. It says nothing in the docs, and I am not in front of a box running PHP at this particular time to test it, but would it make sense to do something like: session_register(item['name'], item['price']); and not have to include the $item['desc'] in the sessions? Sometimes, in my application, I do not want to include the $item['desc']. I want to keep the session alive throughout the script and add more individual array items to it as well, such as say $item['height'], $item['width'], etc, while still having the choice to exclude some of the array items from being registered in the $item session. I'm not sure if I made any sense here, but if someone can attempt to answer this, I would appreciate it greatly.

Re: [PHP] Need Help With SESSIONS and ARRAYS
So far as I know the session_register() function accepts only one input. That could be your array if you wanted. It would be the same thing as doing this: $myarray = array('name' = '', 'price' = '', 'desc' = ''); $_SESSION['myarray'] = $myarray; Set and/or Access with: $_SESSION['myarray']['name']; $_SESSION['myarray']['price']; $_SESSION['myarray']['desc']; -Kevin - Original Message - From: @ Darwin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Php-General [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 3:05 PM Subject: [PHP] Need Help With SESSIONS and ARRAYS Hello, In an attempt to override the political anger in this mailing list I will tell you that I have already searched through documentations on how to solve the problem I'm having, to the extent of my skills in searching.
