PHP session saving array with POST values

Question

First sorry for my English.

I have a weird problem using the php $_SESSION Object. I spent 2 days without find the solution. I am triying to save a multidimensional array that stores some post values. I create an array with this values and then i create a multidimensional array containing this arrays.

Page 1 (setvalues in multi array ans save in session)-> GET -> Page 2 read the session.

My code Page 1:

First, save the post values into a object property and validate them.

public function validateData(){

        $this->nombres=$_POST["nombre"];
        $this->imp_nombres=$_POST["imp_nombre"];
        $this->numeros=$_POST["numero"];
        $this->imp_numeros=$_POST["imp_numero"];
        $this->tallas=$_POST["talla"];
        $this->cantidades=$_POST["cantidad"];
        $this->productos=$_POST["products"];
        $this->equipos=$_POST["equipo"];


        if(WSI_Funtions::compareSizes($this->nombres,$this->imp_nombres,$this->numeros,$this->imp_numeros,$this->tallas,$this->cantidades,$this->productos,$this->equipos))
        {
            $this->isValidModel=true;
            $this->saveProductsValues();

        }
        else{
          $this->isValidModel=false;
          $this->errorMessage="Los datos no son correctos. Los parametros no coinciden";
        }

}

If data is ok, I save those values:

public function saveProductsValues()
{


    $this->productsValues=array();
    $this->productsValues["names"]=$this->nombres;
    $this->productsValues["imp_nombres"]=$this->imp_nombres;
    $this->productsValues["numeros"]=$this->numeros;
    $this->productsValues["imp_numeros"]=$this->imp_numeros;
    $this->productsValues["tallas"]=$this->tallas;
    $this->productsValues["cantidades"]=$this->cantidades;
    $this->productsValues["productos"]=$this->productos;
    $this->productsValues["equipos"]=$this->equipos;


}

Then I save it in a session :

public function saveSessionValues()
{
    $_SESSION['customer'] = $this->customerObject;
    $_SESSION['productsValues'] =$this->productsValues;
    echo var_dump($_SESSION['productsValues']); 
}

The saveSessionValues echo print this:

array(8) { ["names"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(0) "" [1]=> string(12) "ÁNGEL HDEZ." [2]=> string(11) "VUJASINOVIC" [3]=> string(4) "ABIA" [4]=> string(10) "MUTAKABBIR" [5]=> string(8) "PETROVIC" [6]=> string(5) "DOBOS" [7]=> string(4) "HOMS" [8]=> string(6) "CASTRO" [9]=> string(0) "" [10]=> string(0) "" [11]=> string(0) "" } ["imp_nombres"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(0) "" [1]=> string(1) "1" [2]=> string(1) "1" [3]=> string(1) "1" [4]=> string(1) "1" [5]=> string(1) "1" [6]=> string(1) "1" [7]=> string(1) "1" [8]=> string(1) "1" [9]=> string(0) "" [10]=> string(0) "" [11]=> string(0) "" } ["numeros"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(1) "7" [1]=> string(1) "8" [2]=> string(1) "9" [3]=> string(0) "" [4]=> string(2) "11" [5]=> string(2) "12" [6]=> string(2) "18" [7]=> string(2) "19" [8]=> string(2) "22" [9]=> string(1) "5" [10]=> string(2) "33" [11]=> string(0) "" } ["imp_numeros"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(1) "1" [1]=> string(1) "1" [2]=> string(1) "1" [3]=> string(0) "" [4]=> string(1) "1" [5]=> string(1) "1" [6]=> string(1) "1" [7]=> string(1) "1" [8]=> string(1) "1" [9]=> string(1) "1" [10]=> string(1) "1" [11]=> string(0) "" } ["tallas"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(4) "XXXL" [1]=> string(3) "XXL" [2]=> string(2) "XL" [3]=> string(3) "XXL" [4]=> string(3) "XXL" [5]=> string(3) "XXL" [6]=> string(4) "XXXL" [7]=> string(3) "XXL" [8]=> string(2) "XL" [9]=> string(4) "XXXL" [10]=> string(2) "XL" [11]=> string(3) "XXL" } ["cantidades"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(1) "1" [1]=> string(1) "1" [2]=> string(1) "1" [3]=> string(1) "1" [4]=> string(3) "145" [5]=> string(1) "1" [6]=> string(1) "1" [7]=> string(1) "1" [8]=> string(1) "1" [9]=> string(1) "1" [10]=> string(1) "1" [11]=> string(1) "1" } ["productos"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(3) "109" [1]=> string(3) "109" [2]=> string(3) "109" [3]=> string(3) "109" [4]=> string(3) "109" [5]=> string(3) "109" [6]=> string(3) "109" [7]=> string(3) "109" [8]=> string(3) "109" [9]=> string(3) "109" [10]=> string(3) "109" [11]=> string(3) "109" } ["equipos"]=> array(12) { [0]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [1]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [2]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [3]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [4]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [5]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [6]=> string(12) "ES TALLA 4XL" [7]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [8]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [9]=> string(12) "ES TALLA 4XL" [10]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" [11]=> string(7) "LEB ORO" } }

My code Page 2 (php tags ommitted):

if (!isset($_SESSION)) { session_start(); }
echo var_dump($_SESSION['productsValues']);

This echo print the next value:

array(8) { ["names"]=> NULL ["imp_nombres"]=> NULL ["numeros"]=> NULL ["imp_numeros"]=> NULL ["tallas"]=> NULL ["cantidades"]=> NULL ["productos"]=> NULL ["equipos"]=> NULL }

The first level array exists, because the subarrays keys are printed, but all the second level arrays are NULL..

Maybe is for use the $_POST value?? I had try to encode the values of the $_POST object, saving only a json string instead of saving a object with the same result, the first nodes in the JSON are the keys of the arrays but the values are "NULL"

Any help please?? Thanks!!

You are over writing the values. Try with -

$_SESSION['productsValues'][] = $this->productsValues;
