Question

Having a controller like the following:

Class Upload extends Controller{
        private $up_count = 0;
        public function action_tmpupload()
        {
                if($this->up_count == 0)
                {
                        //empty a session variable
                }

                //some more coding to save data into a session variable

                $this->up_count++;
                return true;
        }
}

I keep wondering what am I doing wrong as the $up_count variable won’t increase its value, it always stays 0.

What am I missing?

Answer 1

The problem is you set the variable to 0.

Then next time your controller is run… You set the variable to 0 again!

You need to save the up_count variable in the users session – and retrieve the up_count from that same session
