Re: Help needed - need to access a value from DB into all pages

Janet, I think you probably need to investigate the concept of sessions. You were a bit sketchy on details, but it sounds like this is what you want. If you'd like more help, post to the list, or contact me directly at michael@tapinternet.com (aim:mgkimsal) Wg4- Cook wrote:

Hi there, I am struggling with a concept and can't seem to find a way to do it so hoping you all can help.

My question is how do I make this variable available to all pages?? Do I have to include it with the variables passed to each page or is there a simpler way of doing it. Can I put the variable in an include file and include it in every page - will that work?. Surely someone must have had a similar situation before and can tell me how they solved it. Many thanks Janet
