PHP-General - Session_start() in included/loaded files/pages

Hi,

I remarked I can't put the following code in pages/files I include (php) or load (ajax):

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php 

session_start(); 

if(!session_is_registered("number")) {

header("location:shoot_nr.php"); 

} 

?>

That means everybody can access those files/pages without first selecting a number if they know the direct url.

Why?

Thx n advance.
kr,
C.

Hi,

that "session_is_registered" is ancient, where do you even got it from? You're also missing an "exit;" after the redirect, so the PHP code will keep running.

But it works, at least for the head page.
In the head page I include one page and I have one link to load another page.

I know it's ancient. PHP manual says:

Quote:

This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 5.4.0.

I will try:

PHP Code:


		
			
 session_start();

$_SESSION['number'];

if (isset($_SESSION['number']){ //do.. }

It's not working.
Head page:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php 

session_start(); 

if (!isset($_SESSION['number'])) { 

header("Location: shoot_nr.php"); 

} 

?>

//... html page

Included in head page:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (!isset($_SESSION['number'])) { 

header("Location: shoot_nr.php"); 

}

Loaded in head page:

PHP Code:


		
			
 session_start(); 

if (!isset($_SESSION['number'])) { 

header("Location: shoot_nr.php"); 

}

Kill session page:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



session_destroy();

session_unset();

header("Location: shoot_nr.php");

?>
