SESSION Query

Hi PhpTeam,

Iam runing PHP 4.3.0 on Apache server.

Iam expiriencing following problem when managing session:

1) I start session and register session variable by setting $_SESSION:

session_start();
$_SESSION["session_referer"] = "abc.com";

2) The above step does not register the variable "session_referer".
I have following code in another page altogether:

session_start();

if(isset($_SESSION["session_referer"])) {
go to abc.com;
}
else {
// CONTROL ALWAYS GETS HERE
go to xyz.com;
}

3) However if I redirect immediately after (1) the variable is
registered properly!!? and the first "if" condition in (2) gets
satisfied.

4) I use session_register then there is no problem at all. Only thing is
I get a Notice that this is no more an advised
method.


What is the reason behind this behaviour?

With regards,
Aniruddha Deshpande

Hi Aniruddha,

Try using

session_start();
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['session_referer'] = "abc.com";

and

if (session_is_registered('session_referer'))
go to abc.com;

Regards,
Andy
