Ed, Elsewhere, you stated that you will not use cookies, because one-third of your constituency will have cookies turned off. yet, you will use sessions. Sessions processing depends on cookies being on. ----- Original Message ----- From: <ed@home.homes2see.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 5:23 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] extract($_POST) I will be using sessions to keep things such as a user id while the end user is traversing from page to page but I wasn't sure that it would make sense to also store variable values as well in the session while they are needed then drop them from the session when they are not. As long as each process is secure enough to keep one person from getting another person's values then it should be secure enough to use the extract($_POST) method as opposed to using the $_POST['var'] method. It just seems that it would be more effective to get all the values at once instead of writting out every instance of $_POST['var'] for each individual 'var'.
