VALUABLE LESSON: using sessions and include

Thanks Dav, You caught me while I was debugging. But I learned a valuable lesson! I indeed did not name my session_name correctly. IN FACT ... I did not name it AT ALL in display_image.php. There lay the problem. I needed to declare both: session_name("ESLpostcard"); session_start(); at the beginning of display_image.php AND postcard.php for the data to re-transmit itself. I was running both php files without session_name and session_start. The docs just don't make that clear enough that you need to re-include session_name. Duh, uh, ....... the session ID stayed the same, so I figured the data was getting through even if I didn't see it. Indeed, postcard.php was receiving the data - we can see that in the form - but was not transmitting the data as well, only if I included display_image.php > > http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/index.html > > http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/index.html.phps > > http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/postcard.php > > http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/postcard.phps > > http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/display_image.php > > http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/display_image.phps
