hi all i've this GREAT problem due to my need to store a variable in session and to the lack of documentation (and forum answers) about it. i've seen also some documentation here: http://doc.ez.no/class_ref/doc/view/ezsession5a62.html?PrintableVersion=enabled#999999 but i don't understand how to use the example in it!!!i even tried to insert the code into the index.php code, but i get only a fatal error...
i said: if there is the possibility to store variable values in session, WHY there isn't enough documentation about it????
best regardsalessandro

You can set a session variable by doing: $http =& eZHTTPTool::instance();$http->setSessionVariable( "MyVar", "MyValue" );
You can read the session variable by doing: if ( $http->hasSessionVariable( "MyVar" ) ) $myVar = $http->sessionVariable( "MyVar" );
This is PHP code, you cannot set session variables in templates.
