Re: Re: register_globals odd behaviour?

Hi, Actually is what I do but since register global is off, I do: # Beginning of script: session_start(); session_register('count'); $sess_object->count = $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count']; . . . # In your class methods: class ... var $count function ... # global $count; not needed anymore $count++; . . } } . . . # At the end of your script. # Nothing. $count is your variable, it's registered, coo coo ka choo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count'] = $sess_object->count; # This is actually inside a function ?> I do not know if this is bad because the way $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[] is designed or what. Just wanted to know if there is some real problem like references or some problem that would cause data missing or becoming corrupt. Thanks. Sean C. McCarthy SCI, S.L.
