at it's simplest is this correct..?

index.php
<?php
$variables = $_POST;
include 'anotherscript.php';

anotherscript.php
<?php
print_r( $variables ); //include has access to $variables from parent
print_r( $_POST ); //include has access to post data as well

I'm struggling to follow here I thinks! lol

I don't think you're missing the point Nathan, I think you've hit it on the head. This technique does not solve the problem of passing variables between requests. I think the only benefit here is to avoid having to repost data by including the next script rather than bouncing off the browser.

Or maybe I'm missing the point.

-Stut and Nathan:

The problem was not how to pass variables between requests, but rather how to variables between pages -- as the subject line indicates.

There are several options available to do this, I can use POST, GET, COOKIE, and SESSION -- correct?

Now, I am only demonstrating there is another option -- try this:

script1.php

<?php
$test = "this is a test';
ob_clean();
include('a.php');
exit(0);
?>

script2.php

<?php
echo($test);
?>

Running this successfully passes the variable $test from script1.php to script2.php -- does it not?

Here's a working example (showing all code):

Sure, I am using a form to trigger this operation so you can see it happen, however there is no data contained or passed by the POST -- as shown by the empty print_r($_REQUEST).

While this is very simple -- it does pass variables from one script to another without using POST, GET, COOKIE, or SESSION.

Or is there something here that I am not getting?

Cheers,

tedd
