Question

$query=sprintf("SELECT * FROM membertable WHERE (name='%s' AND pass='%s') AND activation='%s';",
                       $username,$password,"NULL");

$query=$this->db->query($query);
$result=$query->result_array();

I would like to assign that result to _SESSION but

session_start();
$_SESSION=$result; 

results in an incorrect result, someone could help me with this little problem ?

Answer 1

Open application/config/autoload.php, and in the $autoload['libraries'] array, add ‘session’:

$autoload['libraries'] = array(
    'session'
     // you may have some other libraries in here too
);

Now, to store the result, use

$this->session->set_userdata('db_result', $result);

And to retrieve it

$this->session->userdata('db_result');
