I have a index.php page which displays a different output depending on whether information is uploaded (from a file php-mysql table) or whether is it entered through a form. Right now I am using sessions to pass these variables. E.g. when a file is uploaded i am using a hidden field to change the variable to "upload" then when the upload.php redirects back to the index it shows the output of this (instead of the output if would have if it was entered by the form) and the same for the form. This all works fine right now, however, because I am also using the session for a login, the variables are unset after the browser is closed, so that my index displays a blank page. Any suggestions?
I didnt mean to post this twice, I thought the last post was on a different forum but it wont let me deleted this thread.
