RE: [PHP] Some SESSION Vars not Registering

I'm new but.. aren't you also supposed to register the session?? My code .. session_start(); session_register('username'); $_SESSION['username'] = $row['username']; session_register('user_id'); $_SESSION['user_id'] = $row['user_id']; session_register('access_level'); $_SESSION['access_level'] = $row['access_level']; Cheers, Mun Heng, Ow H/M Engineering Western Digital M'sia DID : 03-7870 5168 -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Stillwall [mailto:jstill@audioengine.net] Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 12:02 PM To: Tom Rogers; Warren Vail Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Some SESSION Vars not Registering "Tom Rogers" wrote: > I am sure they do not but.... > I just tried reading the docs and it is as clear as mud so its back to > the suck it and see method From the on-line docs, regarding $_SESSION (at http://us3.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.sessi on): "This is a 'superglobal', or automatic global, variable. This simply means that it is available in all scopes throughout a script. You don't need to do a global $_SESSION; to access it within functions or methods, as you do with $HTTP_SESSION_VARS." So, this gets more perplexing. I should also note that I did try to use the global keyword, and it didn't help. Also, I tried setting the $_SESSION variables in question to something else ($_SESSION["fname"] = " ") before calling the function. Didn't help either. I have just never had a problem with sessions before. But I'm guessing it's my code, as I can replicate the behavior on three different installations of PHP/Apache. -- Jeff Stillwall
