Question on Session

[alucard001@gmail.com]

Hi all!

I am a newbie in PHP and I have a question on using $_SESSION.

To keep it short, here is the code:

A.php:
<?php
if($_POST['username'] == 'USER' && $_POST['password'] == 'PWD'){
$_SESSION['isLogin'] = 1;
?>
<script language="javas cript">
window.location .href="B.php";
</script>
<?php
}
?>

B.php:
<?php
print $_SESSION['isLogin'];
?>

Assume username and password is correct, but B.php show NOTHING!!!
That is, the $_SESSION haven't passed the value from one page to the
other page...

In php.ini: register_global s = On

My question is: how to pass the value from one page to another, without
using $_POST or some other things?

Thanks in advance.

You need to call session_start() at the top of both scripts.

Also, in your code you are using the $_POST and $_SESSION arrays, which
is how you should access these variables with register_global s being
off. Why not turn it off and make your system more secure?

Thanks!

I change my php.ini in the following way:

session.auto_st art = 1

And follow your comment:

register_global s = Off

Thanks for your support!!!
