Hi everyone,If I am understanding correctly...
Stupid question of the week...
A array variable is not being passed between 2 pages. Are my options:
#1. Use sessions?
#2. Use cookies?
#3. Use a hidden form to pass the variable's around?
Here's some context... I am working on a timecard system where they are
presented the main page, where they login they are brought to a screen where
they need to clock in/out. It all starts working great, but when they clock
in/out it loses the variable that says they are logged in so it tries to
re-authenticate them which doesn't work since the username/password are no
longer in the $_POST array...
I can provide code if needed, but I think it's just a logic problem on my
end :)

It sounds like you need to pass that variable in your $_SESSION's. You'll
want to carry that $_SESSION you established upon login over to the page
that handles clicking in and out.
From what I gather here, this is what I'd do.
Main page, login, $_SESSION gets set.
Click on check in, page to check in comes up, does a session_start(), and
then you check for that $_SESSION variable to make sure its still them.
Check on each page for that session var, if its gone, put 'em back to the
log in page.
Make sense?
