session arrays

[wizardry]

hello -

 

trying to get a link to pass the value to another page from a mysql query in php hyper link.

 

most of my site is with sessions.

Can we create an array of sessions? session[0], session[1]? because each id would need to have a session id.

 

final outcome:

// session variables for links
$result = mysql_result($query,0,'Id');
$_SESSION['Id']=$result;
  
$sesId=$_SESSION['Id'];
  
<td><a href="url.php"><?php echo $sesId['Id']; ?></a></td>

thanks in advance for your help.

Just do it like you would always create arrays. You can manipulate $_SESSION like any other variable.

[wizardry]

can you show me a detail example? i've tried creating it like other arrays but the session value just stores one id not two.

I'll show you an example with regular arrays, and you can adapt that to your code.

 

//lets we we have 3 different values we want to add to our array
$val1, $val2, $val3

//now to add them to the array we simply do
$array[] = $val1;
$array[] = $val2;
$array[] = $val3;

//now lets say val val2 and val3 are arrays. we can still do the above.
$val1 = array("one", "two", "three");

$array[] = $val1;

//to access the first element in val1, we can do
echo $array[0][0];//echos "one"

 

There is a pretty good array tutorial in my sig if your interested

thanks for the repsonse looking at the link.

 

what i dont get is that your using array with assign variables.

 

my arrays are dynamic; coming from mysql query

 

my array = mysql_result($query,0,'Id')

 

how should i assign that to the array, i've tried using something like that but it pulls one id into the session variable.

hello -

 

im still having a problem. this array will set but only shows one record from the array. when there are 3 demo data sets.

 

thanks in advance for your help.

 

i want to store the variable id in an array and access that array through session id hyper link on the same page. so that when that hyper link is clicked the session id is passed to the next page.

 

 

here is the page code:

<?php
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
  session_start();
}
?>
<?php require_once('conn.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
    $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  }

  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}
}


$Id = $_SESSION['Id']; //get users id to pass to record
$Name = $_SESSION['name']; // display users name
$Group = $_SESSION['Group']; // access control group for moderators, members, users

$maxRows_List = 10;
$pageNum_List = 0;
if (isset($_GET['pageNum_List'])) {
  $pageNum_List = $_GET['pageNum_List'];
}
$startRow_List = $pageNum_List * $maxRows_List;

mysql_select_db($database_List, $List);
$query_List = "SELECT * WHERE b.UId1='$UserId'";
$query_limit_List = sprintf("%s LIMIT %d, %d", $query_List, $startRow_List, $maxRows_List);
$List = mysql_query($query_limit_List, $List) or die(mysql_error());
$row_List = mysql_fetch_assoc($List);

$List_Array = array();

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($List))
{

foreach($row['Id'] as $i=>$val)

$List_Array = $val;

//return $List_Array;
$_SESSION['Id'] = $List_Array;

$myList_Array = $_SESSION['Id'];
}


if (isset($_GET['totalRows_List'])) {
  $totalRows_List = $_GET['totalRows_List'];
} else {
  $all_List = mysql_query($query_List);
  $totalRows_List = mysql_num_rows($all_List);
}
$totalPages_List = ceil($totalRows_List/$maxRows_List)-1;

1. Since we are working in percentages, it's best not to use side padding on the sidebars. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width. 
2. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".thrColLiqHdr #sidebar1 p" rule.
3. Since Explorer calculates widths after the parent element is rendered, you may occasionally run into unexplained bugs with percentage-based columns. If you need more predictable results, you may choose to change to pixel sized columns.

1. the space between the mainContent and sidebars is created with the left and right margins on the mainContent div.
2. to avoid float drop at a supported minimum 800 x 600 resolution, elements within the mainContent div should be 300px or smaller (this includes images).
3. in the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs.
