Re: [PHP] Sessions and Arrays
Did you try it? Did it work? How about $_SESSION['item']['price'] = $item['price']; $_SESSION['item']['name'] = $item['name']; ---John Holmes... - Original Message - From: @ Darwin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Php-General [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 3:11 PM Subject: [PHP] 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] Sessions and Arrays
I cannot try it out until after a few hours -- work restrictions -- please forgive me. I'm trying to break down your suggestion here. So calling those two lines will actually register the sessions? In other words, does $_SESSION['item']['price'] register the session the same way as session_register(item['price']); would? P.S. -- On the development machine at home I have register_globals on, and I realize the security risks involved. The production machine will also have register_globals on. -Original Message- From: 1LT John W.

RE: [PHP] Sessions and Arrays
Jason, I did try it before asking, else I wouldn't have any reason to ask. It didn't work for me, but I thought that maybe I was missing something. So your answer is yes, it is possible? I guess I'll have to keep testing my application. Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it.
