unserialize() isn't working....

[Sebastian Aguilera]

Hi everyone.
I have some troubles using the unserialize() function.

I have serialized an array and that works perfect:

echo '<input type="hidden" name="vardekedj a" value="'.serial ize($_POST
['vardekedja']).'">';

Gives the output:
a:3:{i:0;s:7:

Then on a later page I write:
$vardekedja = $_POST['vardekedja'];
$varde = unserialize($va rdekedja);
echo $vardekedja; echo '
';
echo $varde; echo '
';
echo 'why?';

And, as I echoed out, WHY?

why isn't it working??

Please help!
/Sebastian

Have you tried "View Source"?

serialize() uses double quotes (") and these quotes don't mix well with
the HTML quotes!


try htmlentities()

echo '<input type="hidden" name="vardekedj a" value="'
. htmlentities(se rialize($_POST['vardekedja']))
. '">';



But why are you serializing the $_POST array to put _into_ the form?
Well ... try it :-)
