PHP - Retrieving Values Stored in Session in PHP

If you know some values have been saved in the session by another script requested by the same visitor, you can retrieve those values back by using the pre-defined associative array called $_SESSION. The following PHP script shows you how to retrieve values from the session:

<?php
  session_start();
  print("<html><pre>");

  $myLogin = $_SESSION["MyLogin"];
  print("Value of MyLogin has been retrieved: ".$myLogin."\n");

  $myColor = $_SESSION["MyColor"];
  print("Value of MyColor has been retrieved: ".$myColor."\n");

  print("</pre></html>\n");
?>

You need to save this script to your Web server as next_page.php. Now visit first_page.php and click the "Next Page" hyper like, you will get:

Value of MyLogin has been retrieved: FYICenter
Value of MyColor has been retrieved: Blue
