Inserting Session Variables Into A Database
I get the following error message when I run the script: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in C:wampwwwNew Folder (2)process.php on line 24 I am trying to write the session variables to a table called schools in a table called school_users, this all works when I simply put words in 'here' in the MySQL command part of my script. So this shows its all OK, (the POST values also work), but I think the trouble is when I use this: $_SESSION['school_name'] in the MySQL command part, that, I think is why I get the error. Help to tell me how to put these in SQL commands or renaming them to $variables Code:

Session Variables From Mysql, Get Them All At Once?
I'm making a new site and am wondering about the best way to query a mysql server.. basically most of the site's pages will display some type of dynamic content based on the user, and im not sure which approach is better.. should i grab all the info i need at login to put into session variables? or should i have queries when/if i need to display the info... im leaning towards getting it all once so the sites main functionality is smoother.. anyone know if im about to make a mistake?

Form Processing - Variables Posted Into Mysql Database

This seemingly simple problem is making me go mad !!! I googled extensively and already tried the following I enabled " register_globals = On " .... in /etc/php.ini and also took used _$POST syntax. wot could be the problem .... is it the case that /etc/php.ini file is not being read .... how do i know whether this is the default location for php.ini? Where can i find the PHPRC environment variable (the variable responsible for the php.ini default location) Is the problem something else .....?

Session Problem: Session Exists, But Session Variables Don't Lasts
I have some troubles with session variables. I can easily create a session, but the variable I append to global session array ( $_SESSION) lasts only until the end of current function. I prepared an example that can demonstrate the problem (see code bellow): The program flow is this: (1) It starts with "session_start()" and displays "login_form()". (2) When user enters his username and password, it goes to "login()" function which sets $_SESSION variables. (3) This function also "Echoes" session_id and user name to the screen. (4) Then it goes to "MyProgram()" function. It only "Echoes" the same variables to the screen. Strange is, that the session_id is the same in (3) and (4), but the user name ($_SESSION["username"]) is only in (3), but not in (4). By other words - $_SESSION["username"] variable filled up by "login()" function is immediately cleared. I don't know why. There must be something missing, but after 3 days of watching it, I can not find a problem here. =========================================== <? Function login($uzivatel, $heslo) { $_SESSION["username"] = $uzivatel; $_SESSION["pass"] = $heslo; $U_Name=$_SESSION['username']; echo "Login username: $U_Name<BR>"; echo "Login session ID: "; echo session_id(); echo "<BR>"; } Function login_form() { echo ("<DIV ALIGN='center'> <H1>Test</H1> <P>Please enter your username and password:</P> <form action='test.php' method='get'> <INPUT TYPE='HIDDEN' NAME='login' VALUE=TRUE> <TABLE BORDER=Ɔ'> <TR> <TD ALIGN='right'><U>U</U>ser name:</TD> <TD><INPUT NAME='uzivatel' SIZE=25 ACCESSKEY='U' TYPE='TEXT'></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD align='right'><U>P</U>assword:</TD> <TD><INPUT NAME='heslo' SIZE=25 ACCESSKEY='P' TYPE='PASSWORD'></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN='RIGHT'><INPUT NAME='OK' ACCESSKEY='O' TYPE='SUBMIT' VALUE='OK' TABINDEX=3></TD> </TR> </TABLE> </FORM></DIV></HTML>"); } Function MyProgram() { $U_Name=$_SESSION['username']; echo "Program username: $U_Name<BR>"; echo "Program session ID: "; echo session_id(); echo "<BR>"; } { session_start(); if ($_SESSION['username']): MyProgram(); else: { if (!$login): login_form(0); else: login($uzivatel, $heslo); MyProgram(); endif; } endif; } ?> ===========================================

Session Variables Not Being Stored To Session.save_path Correctly
why PHP4 running on my Win2K dev box has not been writing the $_SESSION variable correctly to session.save_path at the end of a certain page. Using print_r( $_SESSION ); showed that $_SESSION contained exactly what I was expecting but once it was written to session.save_path it showed an earlier state of $_SESSION in that page. I spent ages trying to locate the problem. I was certain PHP or my config was causing the problem. Why wouldn't I? after all print_r( $_SESSION ) was showing the correct info.

Deleting Records From Database
