Hi gang:
While we're discussing what's legal in css, here's a couple of things I've found about sessions.
I found that starting a session with a number doesn't work.
$myvar = $_SESSION['1myvar'];
I also found that dumping a session to a variable with the same name may cause problems, such as:
$myvar = $_SESSION['myvar'];
Regardless of what anyone may say to the contrary, it doesn't work everywhere. I found that out the hard way. The fix is simply to use a different name for the variable, such as:
$my_var = $_SESSION['myvar'];
Hopes this help someone.
Cheers,
tedd
