Passing session id between pages

[raven74]

I use the $_GET method, appending the PHPSESSID onto the links, to pass the session id between pages. I don't like this method because it appends a long md5 code onto the url. Is there any other way to pass session id's between pages apart from the cookie method ?

Pass it as a $_SESSION variable?

I'm a noobie especially with sessions...

 

Session is created on pageA and I want to pass it to pageB which basically has not much php code in it.

 

What code do I have to put on each page?

 

On pageB ??:

$_SESSION["PHPSESSID"]="what?";

 

I've been quite a long time trying to find an answer to this "problem". A reference to a tutorial or a little bit more detail would be extraordinary.

Thats not exactly going to work - you'd need the session id to access it!

 

raven74 : Unfortunately, those are your options. You either pass it around in the URL or stick it in a cookie.

Ah I see what you're asking
