Question

I am using this code to output all the registered session variables –

 echo "<pre>";
 print_r($_SESSION);
 echo "</pre>";
 exit();

This is what I get

Array
 (
[language] => english
[navigation] => navigationHistory Object
    (
        [path] => Array
            (
                [0] => Array
                    (
                        [get] => Array
                            (
                            )

                        [post] => Array
                            (
                            )

                    )

                [1] => Array
                    (

                        [get] => Array
                            (
                            )

                        [post] => Array
                            (

                                [cart_number] => XXXXXXXXXXXX
                                [x] => 62

                            )
                )


            )

        )
 )

I would like to update the cart_number variable in the Session Array from XXXXXXXX… to 555555. I tried

$_SESSION['navigation']->path[1]['post']['cart_number'] = 5555555

This works and all but the problem is, the cart_number variable is not always in the
[1] => Array. It can be in [2] or [3] or whatever.

So my question is, is there anyway I can may be search through the Session Array for that specific variable and update it with the right value? Thanks.

Answer 1

you can set it this way..

foreach($_SESSION['navigation']->path as $key=>$val){
   if(isset($val['post']['cart_number'])) {
      $_SESSION['navigation']->path[$key]['post']['cart_number'] = 5555555;
   }
}

This will overwrite all cart_numbers which are set up
