using session variables

josemiguel · #1 18-Dec-2004, 15:21

I'm implementing an application where I register a session variable by means of:

session_start();
session_register("usuario");
$_SESSION["usuario"]=$usuario;

I want to allow the user enter data by clicking a button which executes a javascript function which opens a secondary window where the user has fields for entering data. Can I use the session variable I previously registered from PHP code in the secondary window?

Thanks in advance.

Yes you can

Code:

<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function gidPopup() {
window.open( "http://www.gidforums.com/" )
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" onClick="gidPopup()" value="gid index">
</form>
<p >go go go............................</p>
</body> 
</html>

as you can see the window open instruction will open a full size window of the gid index page.

put your url here instead of gidfoums and the path to your script.

As long as you have the correct session PHP in the script it will doo the sesion. You pass your variables to the script yuo call as you normally would.

If you need to resize the window do this search on google

javascript tutorial popup

You will get 1000's of hits

Thats how i first found this script
