Well, the first thing I recommended was to use $_SESSION rather than
session_register(), since it's the way of the future, and also the only
method i've put any serious time into.
With register globals off, you'll then be able to clearly tell the
difference between the form variable ($_POST['proj
Hi Rasmus
Thanks, I think I got it now.
Seems my problem with understanding was with the actual setting of the
variables.
The logic dictated that the session variables should stay the same
throughout the session unless "changed" via a form selection, so I
simply added a
session_register("sessi
Yes , I agree,But that is exactly where my problem comes in, when I link
the person forward, it DOES NOT take the new value for the project_id,
as it is a form element and it only becomes variable on the action page.
This is where I'm unsure about how to "initialize" the variable. As
mentioned
*shakes head a bit*
I'm not REALLY sure what the problem is here, but let's take a step back.
A session ID is a unique, random number assigned to a user as they kick
around your site.
To maintain state (a session) across multiple pages, you pass the session id
around. This can be done with the
Yup, get rid of both ini_set() calls and take out the $sid=...
and stuff and it should simply work.

Thanks, will work through this immediately.
Just to be clear.
If I DO stick with your suggestion of letting PHP do the url mangling,
and taking your code below, I can simply remove the
ini_set('session.use_trans_sid',false); and from your code to make it work
exactly as is?
Thanks

The trick is to not name your form vars the same as your session vars.
Keep them separate so you have full control of what ends up where. Also,
note that if you are not relying on trans_sid or cookies then don't use
SID. Call session_id() explicitly to get the session id. So, a quick
little moc
Yes, it is a forward link to the page, but as mentioned, that page
contains a form with the selection options, and on that form's action
page is where I don't see the values change, so the question should
probably be something like "how do I change the value in the session_var
with the newly s
Well, how exactly do you implement the back button? If it is a normal
client-side back, then of course the previous value will be shown. If it
is actually a forward-link to the previous page, then your logic on that
target page is bogus.
By the way, trans-sid is compiled in by default in PHP so
Well, I have asked a couple of questions on this list, but they havn't
really helped alot. Maybe you can help?
My situation background is as follow:
I have always written my apps in the following way: register_globals=on,
so I allowed PHP to "generate" my variables for me on the action page,

What issues? Just ask.
