$_SESSION=$_POS T

Quinonez

if i set a $_SESSION=$_POS T in every page of a multiple page form how
then would i call it on a later page of the same session? and also how
is distigushed between pages ? should it be set up differently on each
page, ive read of
$_SESSION['variablename']=$_POST
but i cant seem to figure out how to call it back at the end of the form

<?
session_start() ;
header("Cache-control: private");
$_SESSION['resources_a6'] = $_POST;
?>
<html>
<head>

<body bgcolor="#00000 0" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0">
<form action="resourc es_a7.php" method="post">

// then my form and submit button are here so on and so on

ok, first make sure you have a variable in $_POST (ie $_POST['name'])
then you can append values by using .= however it looks like your trying
to set the session variable to an array and to be honest i'm not
entirely sure how to had value to an array.. start at php.net with 'add
values array' or similar...hope that helps

Here's one way...
In each of your processing programs:
<?
$_SESSION['processed'][] = $_POST;
?>

In testthis.php:
<?
for ($i=0;$i<count( $_SESSION['processed']);$i++)
foreach ($_SESSION['processed'][$i] as $field => $key)
echo "$field = $value<br>";
?>

Note: this code is untested, so it may not work.

The $_POST array only has the last submitted page.
You need to use the $_SESSION array.
Happy Coding :-)

May not be of interest (and indeed this may be wrong but it works for
me) - Using PHP PEAR quickform

if($form->validate())
{
$_SESSION = array_merge($_S ESSION,$form->exportValues() );
}

appends the form variables to the session. Then knowing the names of
the fields i access them by $_SESSION['name']

If you don't know what to do, then first you have to see what you put
in the $_SESSION array. In each program, after you do the
$_SESSION=$_POS T, dump the contents of $_SESSION by doing

echo '<pre>';print_ r ($_SESSION); echo '</pre>';

After you see the contents, you should be able to figure out what to
do.

$_SESSION $_POST

by: mammothman42 | last post by:

hi i've got a basic user register form, action="POST". in my php code (on the same page, i store the $_POST stuff to a $_SESSION if the user screws a field up so they don't have to reenter all their info. But i'm thinking, why should i use $_POST at all if i can just us the $_SESSION array? or maybe even vice versa? or am i doing this all the wrong way? cheers

why use $_POST when you have $_SESSION?

Is there any particular reason I should still use $_POST?

Does $_POST survive script hopping?

by: Zorque | last post by:

Suppose I have an HTML form that sends data to a PHP script, "post" method. If this script generates a page with a link to another script, will the latter script get the former's $_POST data when the user clicks on the link? If not, is there a straightforward way (i.e.: no saving to files or cookies) to "post" the data to the latter script without using a form?
