Form sessions for php snippets ?!

Hello,

I have a form (snippet/external), with name and addresses fields, with a session, to remember the correct answers and reset the wrong ones, to try again.
Now, in MODX, the code simply blocks once a correct answer is entered. It resets the others, keeps the correct and that's it. if you try in another browser will show you the same, form partly completed, locked at that state.

I guess there's something wrong with the sessions ?
I'm not a PHP guru or something. How can this be fixed ?

Thanks ! [ed. note: modxvirtual last edited this post 13 years, 1 month ago.]

Are you probably calling your snippet cached?

Another reason for issues may be, that your snippet is trying to use its own SESSION and not the SESSION started by MODX.

yes, the snippet has it's own session

how can that be fixed ?

Any Tag in Revo (snippet, chunk, placeholder, tv, etc) can add a ! to the beginning to be uncached. Examples:

[[!UncachedSnippet]]
[[!$UncachedChunk]]
[[!+UncachedPlaceholder]]
[[!*UncachedTV]]
[[!~UncachedLink]]
[[!%UncachedLexiconEntry]]
[[!++UncachedSetting]]

No need for session_start(); neither. MODX seems to start it's own session.
