I am trying to finish up a login page everything else seems to be working. I activated the account correctly and then when I login I get this error message. What does this mean....

Deprecated: Function session_register() is deprecated in /home/content/64/10176264/html/lexicruz/checkuser.php on line 29

Deprecated means that the function which you are trying to invoke, i.e. "Function session_register()", is no longer a valid command.

How can I fix that....and what causes it do to do that.

[steveb]

It's called progress. The PHP Committee simply decided they had a better way of making that function work, so the old way was made obsolete. It's deader now than a Norwegian Blue.

You can find the answers if you use Google. I'm not going to do your work for you. You don't do mine for me, after all.

Hah Steve, didn't know you was a PHP Guru

Either that, or you actually understand english!

[juse8888]

Yeah you could have left out the last part it wasn't really needed man, I didn't ask you do the work for me, your first part of the answer was good enough...sometimes people on these boards actually leave good advice rather than snide comments.....but thank you for the first part...

Sorry but that is a straight forward error that even Steve picked up on

Deprecated does not mean that it is no longer valid.

Deprecated means it's in a queue to become no longer valid and in future versions of PHP it may not work. There is a pretty substantial difference there.

What you're seeing is actually a warning and not an error and shouldn't cause the site not to work, but it is something you should address (obviously otherwise why would they warn you about it?).

PHP: session_register - Manual


The old way of setting a session variable, which your site is obviously using was to do it this way:

$variable = 'hello world';
session_register(variable);

The way you should be doing it now is:

$_SESSION['variable'] = 'hello world';

According to the manual this is deprecated and will be removed as of PHP version 5.4 meaning that you have until your host updates their server version of PHP to 5.4 to fix it.

Also, your last error is to do with trying to send headers AFTER you've outputted something. This could be to do with setting a session, or used header() to redirect a user.

ha, didn't even notice he had a second error.

The deprecated error is causing the last error
