Many thanks to [csnyder] and [Tim Lieberman] for their helpful
suggestions about header ().
I now have that part of things working fine. However, because there is
an implicit exit; after issuing the call to header (), I'm uncertain if
the $_SESSION variables are being set properly.
When I trace them at the end of one page they are all there
($_SESSION['userid'] = $userid; $_SESSION['badgename']=$badgename;), but
when I examine the $_SESSION array at the start of the next page, the
variables do not exist. My guess is that by short-circuiting any nrmal
end-of-script processing, I may be bypassing the write of the $_SESSION
array to the temporary file.
They've already been written; what you're doing is losing the
identification of the session, so they can't be found. So when you use
the header command, you need to carry along the session id as a GET
variable, like this:
header( 'Location:somepage.php?PHPSESSID=' . session_id() );
