I have various PHP scripts that use the same database.
The startup script default.php sets the connection once for all the scripts.
This connection is set in $_SESSION to make it a global variable for all
scripts.
When switching from page default to page faq, I get errors I can't explain.
Any help is highly appreciated.
TIA, Cor
default.php
----------------
<?php
session_start();
require("menu.php");
...
$link = mysqli_connect($mysqlhost, $mysqluser, $mysqlpsw, $mysqldb) or
die("cannot connect");
$_SESSION['connection'] = $link;
...
?>
faq.php
-----------
<?php
require("menu.php");
$link = $_SESSION['connection'];
$sql = "SELECT Question, Answer FROM myfaqs";
$result = mysqli_query($link, $sql);
// previous line gives:
// Notice: Undefined variable: _SESSION in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\faq.php
// Warning: mysqli_query() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\faq.php
...
?>
