Am i passing the session wrong way? can someone check.
 
i have page findroom.php that will redirect to the page DisplayDetails.php.

i wanted the DisplayDetails.php page to display data from the query in the page findroom.php. The data that i wanted to display from the query from page DisplayDetails is 'room_price' and 'room_type'.

However, when i clik the Book Now link, it dosesnt't display the value.

Since i'm just a starter in php, can someone tell me am i treating the session the right way as it doesn't diplay any result for the data that i wanted to take from the query in the findroom.php. But, for the the others data which is 'checkin', 'checkout' and others, it just show perfectly.

I do hope if someone can tell me am i using the session in the right way or not.

below is the code: lookroom.php(this is the starter page)
Code:
<?php
session_start();
//unset($_SESSION['error']);

$_SESSION['checkin']=$checkin;
$_SESSION['checkout']=$checkout;
$_SESSION['rooms']=$rooms;
$_SESSION['adults']=$adults;
$_SESSION['children']=$children;

?>

any kinds of help really apprecited

php Code:
$_SESSION['room_price']=$data['room_price'];
$room_price=$_SESSION['room_price'];

$_SESSION['room_type']=$data['room_type'];
$room_type=$_SESSION['room_type'];

$data doesn't exist at this stage where you are setting it. Therefore the above lines are extraneous as you're setting $_SESSION's room_price and room_type key from a NULL variable and then passing it along to others ($room_price and $room_type) which then aren't used. var_dump() any of these variables to check them for yourself.

php Code:
<?php
        //$counter=1;
        while ($data = mysql_fetch_array($result)):
        ?>
      <tr>
     
        <td><?php echo $data['room_type']; ?></td>
        <td><?php echo $data['room_price']; ?></td>
  <td width="153"><label><a href="DisplayDetails.php?id_no=<?php echo $data['id_no'];?>"><strong>Book Now</strong></a></label></td>

 
    </tr>
      <?php
          //$counter++;
          endwhile;
        ?>

Since you are generating a list of data inside of a while loop, passing this information along via session variables would be difficult to nearly impossible. You'd be much better off passing it along via GET.

php Code:
<?php
    while ( $data = mysql_fetch_assoc( $result ) ):
        $q = http_build_query( array( 'id_no' => $data['id_no'], 'room_type' => $data['room_type'], 'room_price' => $data['room_price'] ), '', '&amp;' );
?>
    <tr>
        <td><?php echo $data['room_type']; ?></td>
        <td><?php echo $data['room_price']; ?></td>
        <td width="153"><label><a href="DisplayDetails.php?<?php echo $q ; ?>"><strong>Book Now</strong></a></label></td>
    </tr>
<?php endwhile; ?>

Then in DisplayDetails.php you could grab those values and enter them into the session for use later;

php Code:
if ( isset( $_GET ) ) {

    foreach ( $_GET as $k => $v ) {

        if ( in_array( $k, array( 'id_no', 'room_type', 'room_price' ) ) )
            $_SESSION[$k] = $v

    }

}

Please note that the above example is unsafe and does not include error checking of the values it is receiving. You will have to address this yourself, all the code above does is find the keys it wants to assign to the session and assigns them.

thanks delayedinsanity for the reply.I really appreciate the efforts to help me and assist me with some solutions.

I did actuall go through my code again and managed to fix the code.The prob is because the flow of my code is not right.And i finally managed to get the output that i wanted.

Thanks again..cheers:-)
