Answer 1

If we create a session in Magento, then we can only use that session in Magento files like in the magento/app folder. If you want to use that session in external files create by you then you must first get the session in another Magento default file and then call a jquery ajax function and pass session variable through it to get it in an external file. You also pass the variable through ajax without the use of the session.

Set session data like this.

$fldata = 'work for set data';
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setMyCustomData($fldata);

and get data like this.

session_start();
$sessionfree = Mage::getSingleton('core/session', array('name' => 'frontend'));
$abcfree = $sessionfree->getMyCustomData();
