hi folks i'm just about to experiment with the new handling of session vars ($_SESSION[...]). now if i start with
session_start(); $_SESSION["remember_me"] = "steff"; session_save_close(); // tested with and without this function call , the var value won't be set correctly. on a following page print($_SESSION["remember_me"]); doesn't print anything. even a print_r($_SESSION); only shows Array (). i admit i am fairly confused by information on register_globals (which is set to on in my php.ini) etc. up to now i have worked with session_start(); $remember_me = "steff"; session_register("remember_me"); which still works great. i'm working on w2k/php4.1.2/apache1.3.22. the session.[...] settings in my php.ini correspond those in php.ini-recommended. i read about a bug(?) in connection with php4.1.2. and IIS5 (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php, posted on 01-Apr-2002). any known problems with apache (or php itself)? updating to 4.2 is no alternative (as posted on 07-Apr-2002 on the same page) since i have to respect some provicer-side dependencies ;-) TIA for your comments steff -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
