ID: 25870 User updated by: memoimyself at yahoo dot com dot br Reported By: memoimyself at yahoo dot com dot br Status: Open Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Windows 2000 SP 4 PHP Version: 4.3.3 New Comment:
Actually, I've found out that using session_register() won't help at all. What does work is if I reload the page where the session variable is set (start.php) and then open the page where the session variable is used (test.php). For obvious reasons, this is not a very convenient solution in a production environment. :-) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-14 14:27:17] memoimyself at yahoo dot com dot br Using Apache 2.0.46 and PHP as an Apache module (as opposed to CGI). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-14 14:03:48] memoimyself at yahoo dot com dot br Description: ------------ I read in the manual that the use of session_register() is deprecated and that session variables should now be registered simply by creating, and assigning a value to, a member of the $_SESSION array. Well, try as I may, I just cannot register session variables without using session_register(). If, however, I use session_register() before assigning a value to the new session variable via $_SESSION['x'], everything works fine. Reproduce code: --------------- // PAGE A (start.php): <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['test'] = 'my test'; ?> /*******/ // PAGE B (test.php, called after start.php, obviously): <?php session_start(); print $_SESSION['test']; ?> Expected result: ---------------- OUTPUT TO SCREEN: my test Actual result: -------------- OUTPUT TO SCREEN: Notice: Undefined index: test in D:\htdocs\Test\session\test.php on line 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25870&edit=1
