Answer 1

You cannot access session variables directly from jQuery: sessions running on the server; JavaScript works on the client.

You will have to export variables from PHP to JavaScript, for example. So:

<script>
SESSION = { 
 "abc": "<?php echo $_SESSION["abc"]; ?>",
 "def": "<?php echo $_SESSION["def"]; ?>",
 "ghi": "<?php echo $_SESSION["ghi"]; ?>",
 };

alert(SESSION.abc);  // will output "abc"

</script>

Be careful to export only session variables that are not security related.

Answer 2

Short answer:

SESSION jQuery

Answer 3

, javascript

JavaScript (usually) runs only on the client side, and PHP runs on the server side. You cannot directly access session data from javascript.

Answer 4

var id = <? echo $_SESSION['id'] ?>;    

Answer 5

Another method you can use is to enter a value from a session variable into a hidden text field, and then get jquery to read from that text field
