between session-register and $_SESSION

[toufik toufik]

Hi,
I read in the help http://www.php.net/session_register that using
$_SESSION[var]=value is better than using session_registe r... is it true in
all cases?

thanks

Re: between session-register and $_SESSION

Depends on the purpose of these session variables and how they're used. In
most cases accessing them $_SESSION[] is preferrable, because it's easier to
understand.

session_registe r() only works if register_global s is set ON in your php.ini
file, but for security purposes this has been disabled by default since PHP
4.2.0 You should therefore use $_SESSION['var'] instead.
