Difference between sessionurl and sessionurl_q?

[Luciano]

Just maybe a stupid question but didn't find the answer anywhere.

some places i find: ...somefile.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl']

and in otherplaces i find: ...somefile.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl_q']

can anybody help me and tell me when to use the _q and when not?

thx for a reply

sessionurl contains the session id hash. i.e. s=232094234kj3409dsdlk3w

sessionurl_q contains the ? followed by the session id hash.

They are for building different types of URLs in the templates. If you only need the ? when a sessionid is added then use sessionurl_q. If the ? is going to be there anyway, then use sessionurl right after it.

sessionurl_q is used when the link doesn't have any arguments. Using sessionurl_q in this situtation means that when the link is displayed, you'll just see the link.php and not link.php?
