Session variables

Any ideas why when in file A I specify

Code: Select all

session_start();
        $_SESSION['loggedIn'] = 1;
And then in file B I do

Code: Select all

echo $_SESSION['loggedIn'];
I get returned blank data, as if the value was never passed to the session variable?

Stephen,

you have to do session_start() in the second file as well... and turn on error reporting... it will help you figure this sort of thing out.

I don't believe it. It was only a couple of weeks ago I was having the same problem and it turned out to be because I was using an online web proxy to view my website. And it's just occured to me again, it's because I'm using an online web proxy.


DOH!
