RE: [PHP] Registered sessions.

You need to append the session name and id to the header location everytime you redirect that way. So your header redirect should read: header('Location: researchpapers2.php?'.session_name().'='.session_id()); When you have normal links to other pages you don't have to do this but on header redirects like the one above you do. Hope this helps, ed -----Original Message----- From: Angelo Zanetti [mailto:binc2@ctech.ac.za] Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2003 5:44 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Registered sessions. Hi, I have a php page that validates if a username and password are valid. if they are the php page registers and assignes a session variable a value. Then straight after that it automatically calls then next php page using the header("Location: researchpapers2.php"); command. My question is: does the session variable still get passed to the researchpapers2.php page, with the header command? because it doesnt seem to receive a session variable. any advice as to where i am going wrong??? thanx Angelo.
