[SOLVED] session question?

[ballhogjoni]

Is it necessary to have session_start(); at the beginning of every page that you want to pass a value to.

 

ex.

 

page 1

session_start();

$_SESSION['test'] = 'test';

 

page 2

session_start();

$test = $_SESSION['test'];

 

echo $test;

 

//output is the string test

Yes

 

session_start() creates a session or resumes the current one based on the current session id that's being passed via a request, such as GET, POST, or a cookie.
