Session from Database

[yddib]

Hi,

 

I am trying to pull a value from the database to be used in a session. Is this possible and how would I go about it? I have Sessions from login forms working where I can grab user name and password but I need to grab user_ID from the database as it is the Primary Key?

 

Please help!

Sure, just grab it like you would normally then assign it normally.

 

$userID = $row['user_ID'];

$_SESSION['user_ID'] = $userID;
