Question

I have to store an array of unique items to the $_SESSION when the user has selected an item. Each item doesn’t have a unique ID, I’m using a composite of itemName and storeID. What would be an appropriate method to store each tuple (or similar object/fixed array) to an array in the Session?

Answer 1

I would make foreach store an array which contains all the selected items from this store. E.g:

$_SESSION['items'] = array(
                       "store1" => array("item1", "item2",...),
                       "store2" => array("item1", "item2",...),
                       ...
);
