RE: [PHP] RE: Session Problems

From the login page to the login test page I use a form and a POST method. Everything after that I either put the Session_ID right on the URL (like the documentation says) or it comes from the Cookie (in other words, I always put SID into the URL and PHP handles the rest). Before I had the login form first everything worked fine but now with the login form in place it doesn't work at all! Very frustrating! > -----Original Message----- > are u using POST method for for going to the next page ??? > i think in each POST a new session is started ... when u put a > session_start().... u can pass the session id .... to the next page > probably use a database to put in your session variables and .. query it > in the next page .... > > i dont kknow if this is what u want .... > otherwise if cookies is turned on then u should be having no problems ... > > > Hi, > > > > I can't figure out why my sessions aren't working right.
