Re: [PHP] Re: Changes in Sessions (PHP Versions)
If you really need to use 4.0.6, try to use different
session save handler and/or serializer. Try WDDX
serializer at first, then try verious combinations.
If you use other save handler/serializer, it may work.
I suggest you to upgrade, though...

perfectly. But unfortunately, in 4.0.6 it doesn't act the same.
I just have a foreach loop go through all the POST variables and make
them into SESSION variables,
--- Snippet ---
start_session();
foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $key = $value) {
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$key] = $value;
}
--- End Snippet ---
Easy enough... Now, I have all the 10 steps linked to on the side bar.
a href=step1.php?PHPSESSID=$PHPSESSIDStep 1/a
But for some weird reason, those links BLANK all the session variables.
I tested this by doing a count() on the HTTP_SESSION_VARS array. And as
soon as I click one of the Step links on the side, it clears all of
them. I am not sure if I am doing this wrong, but it works fine (as I
said) in 4.1.1.
Another problem that I seem to be having... Is that 4.0.6 almost seems
like it is maxing out with a certain number of SESSION variables. Once
it has so many, it just starts over.
I will just post the link here tomorrow, unfortunately I don't have the
files on this computer.
I hope this is a little more clear.

What did work with 4.0.6 and what didn't with 4.1.1?
If you are trying to use mm/msession save handler, it's broken somewhat.

RE: [PHP] Re: Changes in Sessions (PHP Versions)
Hey,
I changed it from:
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$key] = $value;
To:
session_register($key);
$key = $value;
And now it works fine.
At first, when I wrote the $key = $value... It made no sense... I was
just doing it because I didn't know what else to try. And it actually
works ;) I figured it would set the variable $key to the value of
$value. But it didn't. It created a new variable. Naming it the value of
$key. And giving that new variable the value of $value.
Does this confuse anybody else?? ;)
Thanks for all your help,
-Travis

This suggests that register_globals was set to 'off' in the first case and 'on' in the second case. The lines below are perfect examples of how to change the code when changing the register_globals setting in php.ini.
