troubled post/form/include/session code

can you guys save my hair and figure what is wrong

[Sarah Atkinson]

I can't get it past displaying form1.
But even if I run form1 with a change to the action the Sessions still don't work.

<?php 
require('sess.inc.php');
if (isset($_POST['scheck'])) {
 $activitiesarray=Array();
 foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) { 
  $activitiesarray[$key] = $val;
  }
  $_SESSION['activityform'] = $activitiesarray;  
}
elseif (isset($_POST['from1check'])) {
 $form1array=Array();
 foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) { 
  $form1array[$key] = $val;}
  $_SESSION['form1']= $form1array;
} 
?>

<?php
require_once 'db.inc.php'; 
if(!isset($_SESSION['form1'])){
  include 'form1.php'; 
  }  
elseif(!isset($_SESSION['activityform'])){
  include 'schedule.inc.php';
}else{
  print_r($_SESSION);
  }
?>

You may need to put session_start() at the very top of the page. Before any output.

[Sarah Atkinson]

it is located in the
sess.inc.php file

sorry Sarah, I am missing the point

do you mean

if(!isset($_SESSION['form1'])){

is always evaluating true and you can't make it hit the else if or the else?

[Sarah Atkinson]

I'm saying if the form1 in $_SESSION is not(!) set the include the form1.inc.php

if it is set then don't include form1 but rather include schedule.inc.php

I thought aboult doing away with the sessions totaly and jjust passing all the data from each form with hidden inputs but that just seems like a lot of work and a good place for errors to wait. Although now I'm thinking it may have been faster to do it that way.
