xjermx Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 warning: I'm a self taught advanced newbie. I'm working on a multipage PHP app that has need to pass values between pages, usually very small text strings or small integers. I've designed it primarily using _SESSION variables to pass these bits of data. Some of them are written to SQL, but most of them are temporary in nature. Is using _SESSION variables in this capacity considered reasonable? Is there something else or a different way to go about this? (Page A writes a value into $_SESSION['myvalue'], and then page B grabs that data and does something with it.)

litebearer Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 IMHO, yes, sessions are a good way. Options? 1) sessions, 2)pass via url/get, 3) store in db (still need to pass SOME variable via, get or sessions to know what data to retrieve) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/232874-moving-data-around-with-session-variables-or-something-else/#findComment-1197772 Share on other sites More sharing options...
