I'm having a bad day with sessions which hopefully someone can help me with.
A user logs in to my 'site' (script1.php) and I store relevant details in a session, all fine. I redirect to another page (script2.php) which checks and retrieves certain session values, all fine. My problem is with script3.php which happens to be within an iframe in script2.php. When the user is automatically passed to that page, from log in, the session details are not available but if the user makes a (menu) selection the session values are available to script3.php within the iframe. help !
Simplified code:
script1.php <?php session_start(); [some code] $_SESSION['user'] = $_POST['user']; [some code] $hdr = "Location: script2.php?".SID; header($hdr); ?>
script2.php <?php session_start(); if (!isset($_SESSION['user'])) Header("Location: ../index.htm"); << Does not redirect. [some code] <iframe name="content" src="script3.php"> Your browser does not support the use of frames. </ifame> [some code] ?>
script3.php <?php session_start(); print_r($_SESSION); << outputs Array() [some code] ?>
If you need any specific info on my config just ask and I'll try and supply it.
You need to use full URLs in your header() redirects, first of all.
header('Location: http://www.example.org/script2.php?".SID);Is a session cookie being set at all? You redirect to script2 and pass the SID in the URL, so that's why the session persists. You're not passing the SID in the URL for the source of the iframe leading to script3, so the script doesn't know what session to pick up.
Try: <iframe name="content" src="script3.php?<?=SID?>">
