i have made a function to set a session variable $_SESSION['flash'] in order to store a message between page
function setFlash($string,$type="info") {
switch ($type) {
case "warning":
$_SESSION['flashtype'] = "warning";
break;
case "error":
$_SESSION['flashtype'] = "error";
break;
case "info":
$_SESSION['flashtype'] = "info";
break;
default:
$_SESSION['flashtype'] = "info";
break;
}
$_SESSION['flash'] = $string;
}
and a function to print this message
function printFlash() {
echo $_SESSION['flash'];
unset($_SESSION['flash']);
}
i call this function at the top of every page (naturally after session_start)
the problem is that it doesn't print nothing, but if I comment " unset($_SESSION['flash']);" it prints the message in every page.
how can i solve?
Solved sorry my fault.
my page is something like this
include "func.inc.php"
session start
function editSomething {
that call setFlash()
}
include "template.php" (where printFlash() is called)
now i put printFlash directly in my page and works..bah strange...what's my mistake?
On every page this is what happened:
You have to move Create before display.
(it's also not very usefull because you do not transmit 'flash' (it's delete right after been created)
