I don't know if that's part of you web app feature/service or not but you don't need session to process that request unless you need the results for something else. This example based upon that you use URL query parameter to permit the users to change/select the languages. I don't know how your app is designed but you can process it via $_POST also. $languages = $_GET['lang']=en,de,fr; $langArray = explode(',', $languages); // you can use another separator such as - or _ Than you can process for each of the language: foreach ($langArray as $lang) process_request_func ($lang); <div id='lang_en'>results of process_request_func() for language en</div> <div id='lang_de'>results of process_request_func() for language de</div> <div id='lang_fr'>results of process_request_func() for language fr</div> Or if you have jqueryui or something similar, use tabs for each of those html content where each language goes in its own tab. If you need to save the results for later use, then you'll need the session. Regards, Tommy -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
