RE: [PHP] Session

Yep, 'variables_order'. -----Original Message----- From: George Whiffen [mailto:george@intellnet.net.uk] Sent: 15 November 2001 06:30 To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Session For the record: You can control the order of precedence of variable reading through a php.ini setting, variable_order, (replaces gpc_order). I believe the default is EGPCS i.e. environment, get, post, cookie, session. The last in the list takes precedence, i.e. session variables normally have precedence over get/post variables George Rudolf Visagie wrote: > > The problem lies with the fact that you have a variable 'name' that gets > posted in the form as well as a session variable 'name' that is passed to > the script when it is executed again.
