Well, if sessions are useful for you, go ahead and use them. If you only want to pass something on 1-5 links on your entire site, sessions are overkill, but otherwise they'd be my tool of choice.

Is it actually possible? from what It's possible (with serialize), but not desirable if the array can become big (which is easy with multidim. arrays).
