Note Submitter: zombie ( ) artattack ( ) to ---- Hi, I have been using PHP sessions for a looooong time and can't believe i have not ran into this. It seems you cannot use numeric keys at the root level of the $_SESSION array. This maybe a security thing of some sorts for the session set/get functions. Who knows. But yes, note the following... <?php $applications_id = 5000; //This does not get set and does not throw an error $_SESSION[$applications_id]['customer_id'] = 123; //This works fine $_SESSION['applications'][$applications_id]['customer_id'] = 123; ?> I am guessing the allowed array keys for the root level are something like the reg exp '/[a-z].*/'. It would be cool if php threw at least a notice if something else was used. Blaine Garrett Webmaster of the art attack http://artattack.to
