$_session language

[-Ricardo]

Hello,

 

I am currently making a small website that requires two languages. This is the class I made:

 

<?php

class languages {
  public function __construct() {
    if(!isset($_SESSION['language'])) {
      $_SESSION['language'] = 'nl';
    }

    $lang = isset($_GET['lang']) ? $_GET['lang'] : "";
    $languages = array('en', 'nl');

    if(in_array($lang, $languages)) {
      $_SESSION['language'] = $lang;
    }
  }
}

$languages = new languages;

$language = $_SESSION['language'];

?>

 

Now as soon I use index.php?lang=en, the website will display it self in English but, as soon I remove the &lang=en from the URI, the language gets not stored in the session and it displays nl agian.

 

Can somebody help me?

 

Thank you!

Have you started the session at this point? See session_start

Your going about that in a very long winded way

 

class languages {
  public function __construct() {
    $_SESSION['language'] = (isset($_GET['lang']) && in_array($_GET['lang'], array('en', 'nl') ? $_GET['lang'] : "DEFAULT LANGUAGE");
  }
}

 

And ensure you check what the previous posts mentions...
