How to use sessions in place of a querystring
<p>Using PHP.. I have a small app that I built that currently uses a querystring to navigate and grab data from a database. The key in the database is also in the string and that is not acceptable anymore. I need to change it. I would like to hide the db key and use a session in place of it but I'm not sure how to do that. In fact, there are also other variables in the query string that I would like to use sessions for if at all possible.</p>

<p>page.php?var1&amp;var2&amp;id=1</p>

<p>This is what my string looks like. I am looping through the results in the database and have given each row the id so that when the user clicks the row they want, but I'm not sure how I could do this with a session.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any ideas?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>EDIT:
I'm developing an email type system where senders and recipients are getting and sending mail. Each piece of mail that is stored on the server will have its own unique key. Currently, I am using that number to retreive the message but the problem is that I don't want people to change the number and read other people's mail. I can probably use a GUID for this or even some sort of hash but I really hate long query strings. I was just thinking it would be so much cleaner if there was a way to "hide" the id all together.</p>
