购物车/购物篮 session 不进入数据库：PHP MySQL

Question

I am writing a program with php/mysql in which logged in users use a points system to order items through a shopping cart (no money,paypal,credit card payments,shipping taxes etc. are involved - points only) . My php knowledge is basic to low intermediate.

I have two scripts below:

1. The shopping cart/basket called view_cart.php This works fine (and disables checkout if they don't have enough points).

2. Order submission to database called submit_order.php

I am having trouble with linking the shopping cart session to the submit order page/database. I get the first error message but it creates a new order under the orders table but only with the logged in users ID number, while the total comes to 0. Nothing happens with the order_contents table either.

I am guessing it is something to do with the 'cart' session variables/array so if someone could help or steer me in the right direction that would be great.

Thanks A

view_cart.php below:

    <?php //view_cart.php
    $page_title = 'ViewCart';
    include ('./includes/header.html');

    if (!isset($_SESSION['users_id'])) {

       $url = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']
        . dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
       if ((substr($url, -1) == '/') OR (substr($url, -1) == '\\') ) {
            $url = substr ($url, 0, -1); 
       }

       $url .= '/login.php'; 

    ob_end_clean(); 
    header("Location: $url"); 
    exit(); 
    }

    $rwp = $_SESSION['points'];    

    $problem = FALSE; 


    if (isset($_POST['submitted']))
       {

    ?>

Answer 1

I guess you put session_start() in the wrong place. It must be called before the <html> tag.

Answer 2

I can't see

session_start(); 

Anywhere in here, are you calling it from a parent including file?
