Question related to PHP memory-handling from someone not yet very experienced in PHP:
If I set a PHP session variable of a particular name, and then set a session variable of the exact same name elsewhere (during the same session), is the original variable over-written, or does junk accumulate in the session?
In other words, should I be destroying a previous session variable before creating a new one of the same name?
Thank you.
$_SESSION works just like any other array, so if you use the same key each time, the value is overwritten.
