i have the following code:
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
ob_start();
}
$_SESSION['views'] = 1; // store session data
echo $_SESSION['views']; //retrieve data
i tried to break it up in 2 parts like this:
//Page 1
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
ob_start();
}
$_SESSION['views'] = 1; // store session data
.
//page 2
echo $_SESSION['views']; //retrieve data
it echos nothing, what am I doing wrong?
as Gumbo mentioned, you need to call session_start() on every page you want to use the session..
You also mentioned you were getting the error: Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent
This is due to data being output on the page before the session_start() is being called, you have to include this before anything is echo'd to the browser.
Make sure to call session_start on every page you want the session to be available. ob_start is not the session handler but the output buffer handler.
ob_start before outputting anything else.
session_start() in 2 files before any output.
