setting session variables via a form

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Despite my best efforts, I can't seem to set session variables via a basic form.
I'm trying to use a button to alter display settings, which should be a simple
task, but apparently it is not.  Here's the code I'm working with.

<?
if( (!isset( $_POST['view_details'] )) && ($_SESSION['item_details'] != "yes") )
{
        print "<form method=\"post\">";
        print "<input type=\"button\" name=\"view_details\" value=\"View
Descriptions\" />";
        print "</form>";
}
else
    $_SESSION['item_details'] = "yes";
?>


My session I have tried a number of different solutions, including removing
session_start() from its calling function and various things I might otherwise
overlook.  I'm sure that I'm overlooking something easy but I can't figure out
what it is.  The session variable simply isn't being set, as confirmed by
printing its value (and by things not working!).  Thanks a lot for any and all
suggestions.
