Re: AW: Sessions

hi > hope it's a nice morning in uk atleast it's a nice evening in germany :) > I've solved the session - problem > (had set an directory to session.save_path and it seems that > php does't like that, even it exists) had php full access right's to that dir? > <? > session_register("x")."<br>"; > $x=12; > echo SID."<br>"; > $s=SID; > echo "<a href=session2.php?$s>go to 2</a>"; > ?> bad snippet :) it misses atleast session_start() <? session_start(); $x=12; session_register("x"); echo "<a href=session2.php?" .

SID is a normal constant: <html> <blabla> <a href="link.html<?=SID?>">your SID: <?=SID?></a> btw: you can double check with if(defined("SID")) print SID; and there's a difference between SID and session_id() SID = session_name() . "=" . session_id(); > to send the SID via get in the URI is 'ugly' and perhaps Daniel Beulshausen > [daniel@php4win.de] > is able to fix that ?? so you want a binary compiled with trans-sid? and what bug, we may call it a feature... if you want to use this method turn off session.use_cookies, then you may supply the SID in the URL. if you have cookies turned on it won't work like expected, cause it get's overridden by the cookie. cause the SID is only necessary for the url, it's not the session id! so i think it's a feature (expected behaviour) > I think at the moment it only works via URI and via cookies, check your setting's in the php.ini for session.use_cookies. greetings daniel /*-- daniel beulshausen - daniel@php4win.de using php on windows? http://www.php4win.de
