i checked some document, the parameter of SQLNET.EXPIRE_TIME = 5 in sqlnet.ora file can release that lock, i set with 5,and then test again, but still wait 20 minutes the lock can release, why?

Answer 1

I've changed this now to use the URL variable. I am used to using that to go from a results page to a details page where the recordset on the details page is used. I hadn't realised that you could just set a link to:
<a href="addNomination.php?LodgeID=<?php echo($_GET['LodgeID']); ?>">Add Nomination</a>
where there is no recordset on a page, just for the purposes of passing the variable. (Yeah, I know - this is probably really basic!)
I do have one last question on this though - my form action is:
<form method="post" id="form1" action="<?php echo KT_escapeAttribute(KT_getFullUri()); ?>">
And then the link to a NominationAdded page is in the php code at the top of the AddNomination page:
$ins_nominations->registerTrigger("END", "Trigger_Default_Redirect", 99, "NominationAdded.php");
What would be useful would be to pass the URL variable through again, so that on the NominationAdded page I can have a link back to the same Lodge to add another Nomination without finding the Lodge again.
But I'm not sure what the syntax would be, as it included some PHP within existing PHP, so not just:
$ins_nominations->registerTrigger("END", "Trigger_Default_Redirect", 99, "nominationAdded.php?LodgeID=echo($_GET['LodgeID'])");
I assume this must be possible, but not sure of the exact syntax?
