Jenna's SESSION Array Demo (Page 1)

   Array
(
    [name] => Jenna
    [phone] => 123-456-7890
    [count] => 0
)

GOTO Page 2

Please note -- There is NO FORM (i.e., no POST nor GET) on this page, but this script is populating variables and passing those variables from this page to another page via a SESSION array. Also note the count variable is being declared by a SESSION ternary operator.

This process demonstrates how variables can be passed from one page to another via a SESSION array.

CODE FOLLOWS


<?php
session_name("simps19");
session_start();

include('../includes/header.php');

error_reporting(E_ALL);    // set error reporting to all

// populate variables
$name = 'Jenna';
$phone = '123-456-7890';
$count = isset($_SESSION['count']) ? $_SESSION['count'] : 0;

// place the variables in an array
$a = array();
$a['name'] = $name;
$a['phone'] = $phone;
$a['count'] = $count;

// place the array in a SESSION
$_SESSION = $a;
