Whichever page the user reaches, in some i need their userid, for extra validation. so basically, i'm looking for a mechanism to share a variable between multiple pages, but as i don't always use forms, i think i can't use url-encoding with the a-tag to make the userid available for all scripts. maybe there is support for logging users in, i don't know anyone an idea? tx -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
