[Newb Session question]

Hi,

Thanks for the help and suggestions.

Can i ask though, what's wrong with using session_register? The stuff i read said that most proffessionals use session_register.

Hi, you said that all scripts where intend to use sessions, need to put session.start.

Does this mean, even if i am just picking the session up i need to put session.start? Just for clarification sake.

[Newb Session question]

Hi,

this is probably a very simple question. I have looked on the internet and i cannot seem to get a simple answer.

I am comming from ASP.

My question is : how do i use a registered session on another page?

I have done this on my login page, [code]session_register("DisplayName", "Password")[/code]

Now, how do i check there is something in the session on a completley different page?

In asp i would simple do

if session("username") <> "" - how can i reproduce this with the above registered sessions

Thanks for the help in advance

[Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in....]

Hey,
i'm kind of new to php.

This page looks really interesting and exactly what i need for the wiki i am creating.

However, i don't know how to adapt the code to say

Do i just say

[code]if ($diff = @get_time_difference($starttime,$endtime))
{
if $diff < 7
{
header(location etc
}
}[/code]

The problem is how to adapt this little bit into there so i can pick up the seconds.
Can someone help, would this work for seconds?

[code]sprintf( '%02d',$diff['seconds'] );[/code]
