This won't work, you must register it within a session, just remember to declare the class befor session_start() Alexander Ross wrote: If $this is an object, can I have the following link? a href=process_this.php?this=$thisProcess/a Will the URL become too long?

99% you are right, it will definitely be too long for a GET. Besides,
before writing the process_this.php?this=$this thing your *$this* should
be serialized. Watch the docs for it.
Most probably you have access to some database, so you can just save
your serialized version to a table (the type depends on the size of your
serialized object) and just pass a pointer to the row for the process
script to retrieve and unserialize the object back to normal life.
Just one more thing: if your object contains any reference they will
definitely become invalid, methinks. And I would never do object
serializing if I expected performance to be there. But this really
depends on the nature of your object, so handle the suggestion with
care, it's just way too generic.

This can be pretty risky if your object contains references to external
objects. Works okay for insulated instances, though. Yet I would suggest
not trusting sessions with objects.
You never know how your class is going to evolve on time and you never
know how sessions are going to evolve on time either (just think of the
register globals thingy).
I'd rather map object attributes to a good old table of mine and be sure
I can build it back whenever I want to, no matter what surprises lie
ahead on technology boulevard. Well, almost sure :)
