Re: Header() variables

I've fixed, really really!! here is the stealed code (from php.net user examples) first page code: ------------------------------ function Array2URLString($array_in) { $ser = serialize($array_in); $ser = urlencode($ser); return $ser; } $myArray=array("index1" => "element1", "index2" => "element2"); $serilized_string = Array2URLString($myArray); header("Location: target_file.php?myArray=".$serialized_string); ------------------------------ in target_file will decode the urlencoded-serialized string: ------------------------------ function URLString2Array($url_string_in) { $ser1 = stripslashes($url_string_in); $arr1 = urldecode($ser1); $arr1 = unserialize($arr1); return $arr1; } $new_array = URLString2Array($myArray); ------------------------------ NOW the $new_array will contains the same structure as $myArray variable from first page.

It works now. Again, thank you very much for your help.

My code is: header("Location: target_file.php?myVar=".$myVar); It works fine with all types of variables, but not with arrays. If $myVar is an array, the header function will transmit the value "Array". Probably it's normal but is there any way to transmit an array using this function ??
