Debian potato, Apache 1.3.12, PHP _4.0.3pl1-0potato1.deb I've tried the PHP mailing lists, archives, knowledge bases, etc. out of desparation I'm posting here.
when I use session_start () I get a cookie or /tmp/sess* file that only contains the variables' name but no value. I've rebuilt PHP about 3 times now. Checked Netscape for saving cookies, rewrote the php script a hundred times but can't seem to sovle this one. Doing a session_encode() produces this for the script below: !product1|!product2| any ideas will be greatly appreciated. - greg s. here's the script: <?php session_start(); session_register("product1"); session_register("product2"); ?> <html> <head> <title>Listing 20.2 Registering variables with a session</title> </head> <body> <?php $product1 = "Sonic Screwdriver"; $product2 = "HAL 2000"; print session_encode(); print "<br>The products have been registered."; ?> </body> </html>
