Use Session Variables To Pass The Background Colour Of A Page


I am trying to use session variables to pass the background colour of a page loaded into a frame using session variables. I declare tyhe colour in the main page which loads first, this is the content in the main page and echos OK.

$_SESSION['content_color'] = "#E9E9E9";
echo $_SESSION['content_color'];

However if I echo the session variable in my loaded page in another frame I don't get anything at all.

Pass The Session Variables To A Second Page.
Ive got a problem with our server. I checked it and i cant login to our webmail(horde) and all other sites that  requires logging in. So far i think it has something to do with session variables not being written or not being able to pass the session variables to a second page.

Error messages:
Undefined index: uid
Undefined index: sid

Here's our server specs:
Linux Dedicated server
Fedora Core 3
Plesk 7.5.4

Im not that well versed with handling servers to i dont know were to start.

How To Update Form Input Field Background Colour On Validation Error
I have been searching for form validation scripts for ages and all th ones that I like are far too complicated and inflexible so I decided to stick with my own which is easier to understand.

The only thing I don't like which i have seen on better form validation scripts is that and fields with errors are highlighted.  i can only presume that they have used php to set the background color of the input field or textarea.

How would I add some code to change the background colour of form elements if an error is found? Here is my code which validates the form but doesn't change form elements colours. Code:

Hide GET Variables --> Pass Values Using Session
I have a php file which lists some records. On this list, the records
can be sorted on different columns. currently the sort column and the
direction of sorting is passed using GET values, this means the user
clicks the column name (which is a link) so the new sort column and
direction is passed to the script

<a href="main.php?page=news&sortfield=title&sortorder=asc">

now my question is, if it's possible to hide those values, so they
don't appear on the url, but sorting should work anyway. This means
that

1. when user clicks on column, the new sort order has to be set
2. page has to be reloaded, so new sort order gets displayed.

I'd like to do this using sessions, but I don't know how to update a
session value, when clicking on a link wihtout using GET values...

Pass Variables To Another Page

($recordid is the unique id of a record i have in a mysql table) When I load the page and choose to delete from one of the links the page reloads but the record is not deleted as it should be from the code I have at the beginning of the page. The whole problem, i think, is that the value is not passed when the page is reloaded, which i have seen by adding at the beginning the command echo($deleterecord);.

Pass XID Via A Session Along Each And Every Page
the user sets up the account and adds each subuser as part of his "group". they share an XID inside the database. so user XID = 001 and subuser XID=001 so i know they belong to the same group.

I want to be able to pass this XID via a session along each and every page. So one of my functions in my application would be to list all submembers with this XID. when the main user signs in, how can he carry this XID over every single page he visits? (There is no telling when the main user wants to perform the function above)

So login would include username and password, but in the background i want the XID to be passed along somehow after login. So obviously the username password and XID would be in the same table. Would i pass information in an array? how does the script know to hit this one table. I guess im having trouble putting 2 and 2 together.

Pass Upload Page Variables
As I sure will become obvious with the asking of this question, I am new to
programing....

I have copied and pasted my way to a successful file upload page and have
built some rather ugly if elseif loops that read the file and extract the
needed data from it. While the data is being parsed from the uploaded file
a string variable is being built that holds some details of the process.
All of this happens when the user clicks the upload button on the form. Now
when all this code is finished running, I ASSUME the page reloads, because
my string variable seems to be empty. So, my question is how do I keep this
variable so that I can print it to the form when the process is finished?

If the search was initiated the reloaded index.php then includes a Search_and_display_script.php in #contentbox But the variables is not passed (or available) to the included Search_and_display_script.php file, thus no results are displayed.

I know that The Search_and_display_script.php works fine independently, but not when included in index.php.

Session To Pass A Variable From One Page To The Next
I am using a session to pass a variable from one page to the next. The user makes a selection in the first page and that variable is passed from one page to the next via the session. Once they make their selection on the form on the index page and click submit, they are sent to the homepage where the following code is run:

<?php session_start();
$pcode = $promocode;
session_register("pcode");
if ($pcode == 'tree'){
$text = 'this is stuff I wanna say'
}else if ($pcode == ''){
header('location:blank.php');
}else if ($pcode !== 'tree'){
header('location:invalid.php');
}
?>

What I am trying to do is prevent the user from having to reenter the variable when they return to the home page. Right now, it is forcing them to the blank page and asking that they reenter the promocode variable.

Session Variables Work On One Page But Not Another
I am working on what I suppose I could call a data entry form. The client is a book store and they want to be able to enter books and have some fields maintain their values after clicking the submit button. For example if they have multiple books of the genre 'Mystery' they want this dropdown menu to remain selected on 'Mystery' after they click submit. 

I have been able to get this to work EXCEPT the client also has the option of entering the ISBN number of a book in a 'lookup' text field, clicking a button called 'lookup' and the information is retrieved from a public book database.  This is where I have the problem with the session variables.  The first php form they reach (when logging in) is called 'addbook.php'. 

This form is blank and if they enter all of the information and click 'Submit' the information in fields with an (*) are maintained when they are returned to the form.  However, if they use the 'lookup' field they are sent to a similar form called addbook_lookup.php which has an 'include' (xmlparser_rc2.php) that looks up the data from the public database and then fills in the form with that data. 

It is here that any variables that they input from the prior page should also be maintain, however, I believe the xmlparser_rc2.php script is overwriting the session variables for those fields designated with the (*). I am not sure what to do. Code:

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'>

{
$U_Name=$_SESSION['username'];

Methods To Pass Variables
I am trying to pass 8 variables from a search form to different pages and I am confuse whether to use:
1) session
2) cookie
3) passing variable through URL
4) Using hidden form field

My page#1 is a search form and with 8 Select fields. After press Submit Button, page#2 shows all the search results. Some search would show up 100+ rows so I am using a script to break the result pages. Each display page would limit 20 records with links <<Previous 1 2 3.... Next>> at bottom.

However only the first search result page would show up properly but rest of search result won't showup.

I read a few threads on this forums and I wonder what is the best method to use in my case??? It seem passing variable through URL is inefficient in my case since there are 8 variables. With session or cookie, what happen if the user decide to do another search (page#1 search form) without closing browser will the session id renew itself. With hidden form field, since my Page#2 (result display page) is not using form, will it work.

Pass Get Variables Using PHP Header()

URL of my edit page is like this:

In the form.php I got few lines of code to get that 'cursor' before doing redirection:

$iCursor = $_GET["cursor"];
$url = 'index.php?cursor='.(int) $iCursor;

if ($_POST["cancel"]) {
header("Location: $url");
}

The new URL is supposed to be:
http://localhost/index.php?cursor=2

but it showed up like this:
http://localhost/index.php?cursor=0
