/*if session echo hello */
echo anchor(index.php/home/login);
}
function login ()
{
$name=$_POST['name'];
$pass=$_POST['password'];
$users = array('username' => $_POST['name'],'logged_in' => TRUE);

Well the first thing you want to do is load up the session.
Code:
$this->load->library('session');Once you've done that or you've autoloaded it in your config. You can start working with CI sessions. Next you want to check a session.
Code:
$mySession = $this->session->userdata('mySession');
//If the session is empty set it
if(!empty($mySession)){
$this->session->set_userdata('mySession', 'myInformation');
}else{
//Display hello because its not empty and there is information associated with it.
echo "hello";
//Or echo whats in the session.
echo $mySession;
}If you are trying to write a login script to make sure the person is logged in. I usually add this to the top of my controller in the constructor.
Code:
if(!this->session->userdata('logged_in')){
redirect('home');

They are easy. Two basic functions reading and writing.
To write a session you use:
Code:
$this->session->set_userdata('variable_name_of_session', 'value_of_session');To read a session:
Code:
$this->session->userdata('variable_name_of_session');Thats pretty much all there is to it.

Code:
class Home extends Controller {
function Home() {
$this->load->library('session');
}
function index() {
$this->session->set_userdata(array('text' => 'This is some text'));
}
function login() {
if ($this->session->userdata('text') !== FALSE) {
echo $this->session->userdata('text');
} else {
echo 'No session was found';
}
}

i add a link in the index function to go to login page
in login page appear 'No session was found' but i think it would be 'This is some text'
Quote:class Home extends Controller {
function Home() {
$this->load->library('session');
}
function index() {
$this->session->set_userdata(array('text' => 'This is some text'));
echo anchor('index.php/home/login','login');
}
function login() {
if ($this->session->userdata('text') !== FALSE)
{
echo $this->session->userdata('text');
}
else
{
echo 'No session was found';
}
}
}

ok I modify the code and it work with me
Quote:class Home extends Controller {
function Home()
{
$this->load->library('session');
$this->session->set_userdata(array('text' => 'This is some text'));
}
function index()
{
echo anchor('index.php/home/login','login');
}
function login() {
if ($this->session->userdata('text') )
{
echo $this->session->userdata('text');
}
else
{
echo 'No session was found';
}
}
}
now the code work very good
but i want to change $this->session->set_userdata(array('text' => 'This is some text'));
to $this->session->set_userdata(array('text' =>$this->input->post('name'));
post('name') will hold data in one page only but i want to have the data in every page
