Session Variables List

[pabirds]

Is there a way to reorder the list of session variables under the Bindings tab. They appear to be in the order in which there were created. I would like to see them alphabetized.

I see no option for that.  And I can't find a file that lists them in which I could manually rearrange them.

Unfortunately, there isn’t a direct option in Dreamweaver to reorder session variables alphabetically under the Bindings tab. However, you can manually organize them by editing the source code.

To manualy reorder

1. locate the section of your code where session variables are instantiated
2. create an array to hold the variables and sort it
3. then use a loop to output the sorted session variables

Also specify if you want them sorted in ascending or descending order.

I was looking for a way to organize the list under the Bindings tab, so when I am selecting one from that list it is easier to find.  Apparently, that cannot be done.

Unfortunately not. And unfortunately the bindings are found with the server behaviors that have not been developed in longer than DW itself which is in minimal maintenance mode so future updates are very unlikely. Depending on your level of comfort with code you may want to consider a variety of alternatives.

I hope you're not using the deprecated Server-Behaviors panels in legacy Dreamweaver.  Those Server-Behaviors were removed for a reason.  The code isn't secure and connections may not work with the latest servers.
