Re: [PHP] I don't understand HTTP_SESSION_VARS From: Michael Champagne (mchampagne <email protected>)
Date: 03/23/01

I'm trying this and it's still not working. Here is my code in 2 files,
write_sess.php and read_sess.php. I've been trying to figure this out all
day.

/* WRITE_SESS.PHP */
<?php

function write_session()
{
  global $my_session_var, $HTTP_SESSION_VARS;
  session_start();
  $my_session_var = "Boogedy Boogedy";
  session_register($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['my_session_var']);
}

write_session();
?>

<HTML>
<BODY>
<a href = "read_sess.php"> Read Session Variable </a>
</BODY>
</HTML>

/* READ_SESS.PHP */
<?php
  session_start();
?>
<HTML>
<BODY>
<?php
function read_session()
{
  global $HTTP_SESSION_VARS;
  return $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['my_session_var'];
}
  print"Session Variable: ". read_session();
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Here is my php.ini file:
/*** PHP Initialization File ***/

asp_tags=true
include_path=.:/ora9ias/Apache/Apache/php
auto_prepend_file=cisweb_global.inc
session.gc_maxlifetime=14400
session.gc_probability=10
session.name=CIS_SECURE_SESSION
register_globals off
track_vars on

I'm so confused why I can't get this working. Thanks for everyone's help.
