RE: [PHP] sessions trouble

Actually, I've tried it both ways (register_globals=On and register_globals=Off). Same result with either setting. At 12:19 PM 6/18/2002, you wrote:

Check the register_globals setting in php.ini. It looks like it is "on" on the problem server. If so, then you have two choices: 1. Turn it "off" 2. Change your code to this style: session_start(); $node = 10.2; session_register('node'); echo $node; Kirk -----Original Message----- From: Leston Drake [mailto:ldrake@lpsoftware.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 11:48 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] sessions trouble Hello, I am unable to retrieve session variables on my local server. I'm using some code like this to test it (thanks to Ed): ------------------------------------------------------------------ session_start(); echo ":" . $_SESSION["node"] . "<br>"; $_SESSION["node"] = "10.2"; echo ":" . $_SESSION["node"] . "<br>"; ------------------------------------------------------------------ Then there is an href link to the same document, to test whether or not it can see $_SESSION["node"] the next time. It can't. The output for both requests looks like this: ------------------------------------------------------------------ Warning: Undefined index: node in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\test5.php on line 3 : :10.2 test ------------------------------------------------------------------ On another server (http://www.lpsoftware.com/phptest/test5.php) it works as expected. But I can't figure out why it doesn't work here. I'm running WinME, Apache 1.3.2, Php 4.1.2 I have cookies enabled (actually prompted so I can 'see' it) for my browser. Is there some setting in php.ini that I need to change? BTW, being a php newbie I really appreciate the helpful people on this list! You're a great resource.
