Wildhalf Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I am new to SESSIONS and have a quick question about them. I want to use sesssions on my site but was wondering if they would work for the follow senario. Say a customer visits my url: http://www.mysite.com/?id=2 Now what i am doing is taking the id out of the URL using sessions and redirecting the user to http://www.mysite.com while my session ($_SESSION['id']) holds the value 2 in it. I have this working great, i believe it just looks better. Now if my customer decides to buy my product via paypal and is directed off my site while he/she is paying for said item on paypal when they return could i still use some of the information that i stored in my session?? I know i could use post and get to pass through paypal but unfortunately i have to use sessions for what i am trying to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a session will exist as long as the browser has not been completely closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
