Doubt using session - El Forum - 08-31-2007

Hi friends, forgives my bad English…

I am with a doubt using sessions, already I searched in forum and I did not find the solution.

The doubt is the following one:

I possess an Array of the following collection:

Code:
$arr = Array('idclient' => $idClient, 'name' => $nameClient);

necessary to insert this Array in one session:

Code:
$this->session->set_userdata('client', $arr);

The doubt is following now:
How I go to have access the value 'name' for example? Using

Code:
$this->session->userdata('name');

it returns emptiness.

Tips?

hug. :cheese:

you set the session key to retrieve that array as client so

Code:
$this->session->userdata('client');

gets the array. If you want to extract name you have to do

Code:
$client = $this->session->userdata('client');

echo $client['name'];
