Hi, I've got a session problem that I don't understand. Here's the setup. There are 2 frames, frame1 and frame2 (within frame1).
Frame1 is simply a static html page like the following: <frameset rows="0,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0"> <frame src="http://mysite.ca/blank.html"; name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize > <frame src="http://mysite.ca/getPage.php?siteid=33&page=homepage"; name="mainFrame"> </frameset> Frame 2 is the php file, namely getPage.php. In this php file, it starts the session and does some initialization to set the session variables. The php code is executed before any HTML code is outputted. So the session variables have been all set. It looks something like this: <frameset rows="0,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0"> <frame src="blank.html" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize > <frame src="<?=$mypage;?>?mode=view" name="mainFrame"> </frameset> so $mypage is actually a dynamic string to another PHP page. The problem is, this $mypage that frame2 opens depends on the session variables that I've set at the beginning of frame2. And I realized that the session id of $mypage is not the same as that of frame2. So the variables will not load. So if i call up frame1 on the browser, $mypage will not get the session variables of frame2. The funny thing is that if i simply load up the url http://mysite.ca/getPage.php?siteid=33&page=homepage, i.e. the URL of frame2, $mypage actually DOES get those variables and have the same session id. Although I've solved the problem using a hacked method (passing the session id to $mypage using GET), I'm wondering if there's anything wrong with the setup that causes the diverse outcomes.
