I wonder whether someone may be able to help me please.
The code below allows users to delete images from a gallery.
Full Script Minus Styling
<?php session_start();
$_SESSION['userid']=$_POST['userid'];
$_SESSION['locationid']=$_POST['locationid'];
//echo $_SESSION['userid'];
//echo $_SESSION['locationid'];
?>
<?php
$galleryPath = 'UploadedFiles/' . $_SESSION['userid'] . '/' . $_SESSION['locationid'] . '/';
$absGalleryPath = realpath($galleryPath) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
$descriptions = new DOMDocument('1.0');
$descriptions->load($absGalleryPath . 'files.xml');
?>

In essence, the user clicks on a delete icon, then the 'delete.php' script called in the code above deletes the image from the server. This all works well.
What I'm struggling with is how to pass two variable values to the 'delete.php' script. These are 'userid' and 'locationid'.
I've tried adding the following to the beginning of my 'delete.php':
<?php session_start();
$_SESSION['userid']=$_POST['userid'];
$_SESSION['locationid']=$_POST['locationid'];
But the values are not carried over. I suspect that this may be down to the fact the the forms 'POST' action is being used to navigate to another HTML page, although I'm no expert, so I may have got this wrong.
I've done quite a bit of reading and searched for tutorials on how to go about getting around this problem, but I've not found anything that seems to suggest a solution.
I just wondered whether someone may be able to look at this please, and offers some guidance on how I can pass these two values to my 'delete.php' script.
Many thanks and kind regards
