ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! now I follow; and surely tedd what you say is indeed the best way of achieving this.

cheers for taking the time

Nathan:

No problem.

But here is what I would like you to consider, the next time you are thinking about using sessions to pass variables to the next script, try this technique instead.

You see, a few months ago I was working with another programmer who had a script that contained far more data than what I wanted to break down into sessions to pass to my script. So I tried this and to my surprise it worked flawlessly.

Then I thought "Where else could I use this?" and it seems that I can use this everywhere.

Now, I've had three hours of sleep, so my mind may be more fuzzy than usual, but I can't think of an example where I can't use this technique instead of using sessions.

If you can think of one, please tell me.

Cheers,

tedd
