PHPRunner General questions

Hi.

I have a phprunner project uploaded to domain.com/phprunner

I have another php application uploaded to domain.com/phpapp2
How do I pass the user ID (ie. $_SESSION["UserID"] ) across form phprunner to phpapp2? I know this is something to do with the "include" file, but

  1. have no idea what to edit

    and
  2. am worried about security issues if I make a b**ls up of it!
    Comments and advice much appreciated.

    Regards,

    Mand

Hi,
you don't need to pass $_SESSION["UserID"] value. This variable is the same in both applications.

Just make sure security settings are the same in these two projects.

Hi Jane.

Thanks for your help. I probably didn't explain it well - the second php app (phpapp2) is NOT a phprunner project.

Mand,
if both PHP applications reside on the same server PHP sessions will be shared you can simply access $_SESSION["UserID"] in your second app.
