Hi,
I would NOT advise storing a complete resultset in your session.
If you store it simply in your session, you store a resourceID, which is
unusable next invocation of any script using the same session.
You can however store an array-representation of the resultset in your
session.
If you use ADODB as a databaseabstractionlayer, you can do the following:
$res = $conn->Execute($SQL)->GetArray();
Beware however that big resultsets stored in session is asking for
performancetroubles.
Also, if you want to see your session:
<pre>
<? print_r($_SESSION); ?>
</pre>
