GET and SESSION variables

[KaiSheng]

Hi, 

on the 1st page

i echo the session id to the 2nd page url

This is the code. <a href="gameInfo.php?id=<?php echo '' . '(' . $_SESSION['id'] . ')'; ?>">

 

on the 2nd page, i try to get the session id to appear to be something like ..gameinfo.php?id=(5).php on the page

with this code

 $id = $_GET[($_SESSION["id"])];

however it only shows up the first id of the user in the database.

I changed account to a different ID user, it still shows up the same result.

is there anything wrong with my quotes or something?

help please thanks!!!

If you click:  <a href="gameInfo.php?id=<?php echo $_SESSION['id']; ?>">   (notice I changed it)

 

Then on gameinfo.php, you get the id with:

$id = $_GET['id'];

thanks for the fast reply, that works well.

but the result i want to achieve is for example

in database

userid 1 = john, so when john clicks on gameInfo.php, it will show ..gameInfo.php?id=1

userid 2 = mary, so when mary clicks on gameInfo.php, it will show ..gameInfo.php?id=2

 

that's the part i can't get it ):

 

 

--edit--

 

and also, they can only access the page after they have logged in.

Anyone can help?

[Rifts]

can you give more information?

[KaiSheng]

what i want to achieve is that

 

when a user login, he can see a page called gameInfo.php

when he clicks onto that gameInfo.php, the link will show localhost/../gameInfo.php?id=1, if his user id is 1 in the database.

if another user login, if the person user id in database is 2, the page will show localhost/../gameInfo.php?id = 2.

that's what i meant.

 

I got the id to show up on the page already.

But however, no matter which account i log into, it will still show the page localhost/../gameInfo.php?id=1 

i do not know what is the mistake.

I am trying to get the session id to pass through and appear on the link of the page.

[KaiSheng]

I just found out, when i print S_SESSION['id]; 

the id is always 5.

it doesn't change no matter which account i log into.

Is this a simpler to understand?

I have a session_start()

i do not know why is my session always the same.

help??
