Hello Tedd,
it seems to be a naming problem. You may not use a numeric value for a variable name to store in $_SESSION.
By assigning it to $_SESSION, you get a
Notice: Unknown: Skipping numeric key 1 in Unknown on line 0
and in your second script a
Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in yourpath\index1.php on line XX -> whatever line it was in your script
If you define
$_SESSION['var'.$i] = $i;
or $_SESSION[$i.'var'] = $i;
or even $_SESSION[$i.'.1'] = $i;
the $_SESSION won't forget your vars on the way to script 2.
But it's a bit strange, that you can use your numeric keys in script 1.
I tried with other Superglobals like $_POST and $_COOKIE and they seem to accept numeric variable names.
So, is that a php bug?
But as the docu says "A valid variable name starts with a letter or underscore", I think you can not complain about it.
Cheers
Sabine

Hi gang: Arrggg -- what the heck is going on? I can't get anything to pass via SESSION -- what's wrong? Here's the example -- (all the code is there): I populate the $_SESSIONs here. http://www.webbytedd.com/b2/session-test/index.php If you click "Proceed to Step 2", you'll see that nothing is passed. Now, where did I go wrong? Cheers, tedd PS: I've tried this on two different servers and get the same results.
