Hi everyone,
Just to say first that XOOPS is great and the best CMS out there. Well thats all the praise over and done with, I have a prob that I hope can be sorted before I pull all my hair out.
I am using XOOPS 2.0.15 and whatever I do I cannot pass url variables, what I mean is
http://www.mydomain.co.uk/index.php?yourid=123456.
I am trying to store the variable and use it on another page of my site.
I have tried the following methods:

1.Setting a session and calling it with $_SESSION['yourid'].

2.Coded the session as a class function and included it once under the include"header.php"

3.I have tried setting it in a cookie with setCookie($name, $value, $time) and calling it with $yourid = $_COOKIE[$name]

4.I have tried witing it to a small file on my server.
I have included the globals $_COOKIE etc, even though it says you dont need to.

Nothing I try is working. Am I doing something wrong with my coding?????
I have changed preferences to allow me to use my own cookies.
I have tried to search the forum for answers, please help me so I can finish my module.
Thanks
Dave

Can you post some examples of the actual code you are trying to use as well as environment vars (server type, php ver, XOOPS ver, etc.) info

hi,
Thanks for your response.
My vars are:
Apache vers: 1.3.34
PHP version 4.4.1
Xoops version 2.0.15
Code Im using is as follows:

1)Sessions
function setsessionvalue($name, $value){
session_start();
$_SESSION[$name] = $value;
}
function getsessionvalue($name){
session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION[$name])){
return $_SESSION[$name];
} else {
return false;
}
}
2)Cookies
function setcookievalue($name, $value, $time){
setCookie($name, $value, $time()+3600*24);
}
to get the cookie value I use
$value = $_COOKIE($name);

Hope this helps in helping me where I'm going wrong

Thanks
Dave
