[SOLVED] passing object via POST

[robcrozier]

Hi Guys.

 

Can anyone advise me on the best way of passing an array of objects via form post?  I've tried serialising the data, however i'm getting unserialize errors at the other end.  I've also tried storing the array as a session, however i then get an incomplete object error at the otger end?

 

I really need to get this working.

 

Any help would be great!

 

Thanks in advance

Pass it as

 

Something1,Something2,Something3,Something4

 

And then

 

<?php

 

$Array = split($_POST['Thethingwiththesomethings']);

 

?>

Hi

 

Thanks for the reply.  Onlty thing is, when i do that, the object is unknown at the other end and thus i cant access any of it's methods to get the data out of it.

 

Unless you can help me with that error too (the unknown object one), i don't think that's gonna work.

 

Cheers mate!

The class definition needs to be within scope when you unserialize the object. eg;

 

class.foo.php

class foo {
  public $v;
}

 

a.php

include 'class.foo.php';
$f = new foo;
$f->v = 'hello';
echo '<a href="b.php?obj=' . serialize($f) . '">B</a>';

 

b.php

include 'class.foo.php';
$f = unserialize($_GET['obj']);
echo $f->v;
