L.S.
I am developing a PHP-login script (on Lycos Tripod) that uses Session to
pass on variables. Below is the entire (stripped) structure that I use. It
opens a page where you can Set and Read the session variable BUT ... It
doesn't work!!! It seems that both set- and readlink open their own private
session.
How can I get the read-link to access the proper session variable?
Below is a full testing environment. It uses frames and should work fine ...
but it doesn't. I use this directory-structure:
testindex.php
testmenu.php
testhome.php
login001 [dir]
-----testsetvar.php
-----testreadvar.php
fb001 [dir]
-----testfb.php
-----testframe1.php
-----testframe2.php
The content of the files is:
