Re: [PHP] Sessions - More Info
Dear List - Thank you for your help in the past. This an update on my session problems. Here is a simple test program. It never increments the session counter; ie, does not detect that $_SESSION has been set. "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";> http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> I have no idea what is wrong. I need to make my session variables work so that I can finish a project. Help and advice, please. Ethan Rosenberg MySQL 5.1 PHP 5.3.3-6 Linux [Debian (sid)] I tried your code on my testing computer (PHP 5.2.14) and everything works fine. $_SESSION['views'] is counting up correctly. Maybe a problem with your configuration? Beste regards. Steven -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

If you're using Firefox, grab the Firebug plugin, which should show you the headers that are being sent to and from the server to the browser. From that, you might get an idea why the sessions don't seem to be working. Just to make sure, turn on display_errors in your php.ini file and restart Apache. Some whitespace (space or new line, for example) before that first http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk ++ Ash - Thanks. What did it was to 1] explicitly declare the character set and 2] close and restart Apache. Ethan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
