Re: Session variables

But gives me an error on the second line on the following code Notice: Undefined index: hostname in e:\INetPub\WWWRoot\phpconverted\scripts\global.inc on line 2 whereas i am setting the value of $_SESSION["hostname"] = "servername"; in the page right before it. <?php $_SESSION["con"]=mssql_connect($_SESSION["hostname"], $_SESSION["user"], $_SESSION["password"]) or die ("Error on connection string."); $_SESSION["dbcon"]=mssql_select_db( $_SESSION["dbname"],$_SESSION["con"]) or die ("database incorrect"); ?> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephen" <stephen.edmonds5@btinternet.com> To: "Harpreet" <harpreet@crispincorp.com> Cc: "Windows Helplist (PHP)" <php-windows@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, April 29, 2003 1:11 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] Session variables > Um looks to me like you are starting a session variable without any > values...
