I have installed Xampp on my home computer (laptop) and it works great. Kudos to the developers. After trying to coordinate Mysql and PHP and Apache for 2 days, I installed this in 10 minutes!
However, I have found that session variables don't work. The pages I installed on my main web server online work just fine so it probably isn't the code. The session.auto_start variable in php.ini is set to 0 which is correct. I have put session_start(); at the top of my pages. I set the session variable with:
$_SESSION['menu'] = "officer";
If I check on that page the $_SESSION variable is set.
On the next page I try to read the variable as:
$menu = $_SESSION['menu']
$_SESSION['menu'] is null at that point.
Any ideas of setting to change?
Thanks.
