Hello,
I have on a non-MODX site the following code:
if (!isset($_SESSION["xx"])) {
$_SESSION["xx"] = 1;
}
$a = $_SESSION["xx"];
$a = $a + 1;
$_SESSION["xx"] = $a;
print "<h3>a = " . $a . "</h3>";
This is standard a counter in a session variable. Very basic and
straightforward.
When refreshing the page, I get a number-count.
Then I paste this piece of code in a snippet. [[phpsession]]
The snippet is called from a document.
What happens then is very very strange:
1) The counter is not updated on refreshing the page
2) The counter is updated after I edited/saved snippet.
3) Another user (another PC, same outgoing IP address) gets the same
number as I have
When I add a php command var_dump($_SESSION) in the snippet,
then I see all MODX session params. They look ok. I also see my
added variable.
This must be a very strange bug or something very stupid of me.
Since I cannot be the first one using session I am very afraid it’s
the latter. But what did I do wrong?
Please help.
Thank you.

is the page cached?
If so, did you call the snippet uncached as [!phpsession!]

Ah, my first encounter with the MODX caching mechanism.
Very very sorry guys that I did not see this directly.
Yes, calling the snippet with the "[! !]" instead of "[[ ]]" solved
the problem.
