$_SESSION cant set

[dreamwest]

I cant seem to set this session for some reason:

 

<?php

session_start();


$comfirm = $_POST['confirm'];

if($confirm != ""){

$_SESSION['confirm'] = 1;
} 

if($_SESSION['confirm']){

$session = "ok";

echo "im set!!";
}
?>

<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="confirm" value="yes" >
<input style="margin-right: 5px; " type="submit"  value="Confirm User">
</form>

Try the following:

<?php
session_start();

if($_POST)
{
	$comfirm = $_POST['confirm'];

	if($comfirm)
	{
		$_SESSION['confirm'] = 1;
	} 

	if($_SESSION['confirm'])
	{
		$session = "ok";
		echo "im set!!";
	}
}
?>

<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="confirm" value="yes" >
<input style="margin-right: 5px; " type="submit"  value="Confirm User">
</form>

Is that counted as whitespace?

For some reason the $confirm variable was interfering, dont know why but it now works:

 

<?php

session_start();

$yes = $_POST['confirm'];

if($yes != ""){

$_SESSION['confirm'] = 1;
} 

if($_SESSION['confirm']){

$session = "ok";

echo "im set!!";
}
?>

<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="confirm" value="yes" >
<input style="margin-right: 5px; " type="submit"  value="Confirm User">
</form>

typo;

 

$comfirm = $_POST['confirm'];

 

You set the variable as 'comfirm' then checked the varialbe 'confirm'
