Hi Matthias,
Session Variables are like cookies except they auto-expire at the end of a
browser session
like when you close a tab or window.
In Javascript one would set a session variable this way:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
// Set the Value of the Session Variable
sessionStorage.setItem("firstname", "John");
sessionStorage.setItem("lastname", "Smith");
//-->
</script>
One would retrieve the session variable in Javascript this way:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
// Retrieve
document.getElementById("JSNewFirstName").innerHTML =
sessionStorage.getItem("firstname");
document.getElementById("JSNewLastName").innerHTML =
sessionStorage.getItem("lastname");
//-->
</script>
In LiveCode one would set a session variable like this:
<?lc
start session
put “Matthias” into VarFirstName
put VarFirstName into $_SESSION["NewFirstName”]
stop session
?>
To retrieve the session variable in LiveCode:
<?lc
start session
put $_SESSION["NewFirstName”] into VarFirstName
stop session
?>
So, I’m wondering that since we are able to have LiveCode retrieve Javascript
cookies,
then perhaps it can retrieve Javascript session variables too.
I just haven’t quite made the connection yet.
Your thoughts?
