GET - visible in URL
POST - not visible in URL
- SESSION is for keeping data persistet between pages, for example, the ID of a logged in user.
// Retrieve data from a GET method // (ie method="get" in an HTML form from the previous page.) $username = $_GET['username'];
// Same thing for a POST method but use $_POST instead of $_GET $color = $_POST['favorite_color'];
// Session works the same way except that you have to call... session_start();
// ...before you can do anything.
// also, session variables you set on your own, whereas GET and POST are set on the client side.
$_SESSION['favorite_MLP_character'] = "PewDiePie";
// The string between the []s (AKA the Key) can be whatever you want it to be, // and you can use that string whenever to retrieve or modify the value that // $_SESSION['string'] holds, even on a different page entirely.
$pony = $_SESSION['favorite_MLP_character']; echo $pony; // prints 'PewDiePie'
// Each session is unique to that user. If you want to delete all session variables stored for this user, do this:
session_unset();
