如何更改会话数组变量值

Question

I have an array of 'products' in my session, a product is an array of name, code and quantity, I want to change the quantity when I press a 'qty_up' button:

my PHP is this:

if ($_POST['qty_up']==''){
    foreach ($_SESSION["products"] as $key => $val)
    {
        if ($val["product_code"] == $_POST['code']) {
            $val["product_qty"] += 1;
        }
    }
}

This changes $val["product_qty"] but not the real value in the session

This is my 'products' array in the session:

array (size=1)
  'products' => 
    array (size=5)
      213453 => 
        array (size=5)
          'product_qty' => string '1' (length=1)
          'product_code' => string '213453' (length=6)
          'product_name' => string 'Kingfisher' (length=10)
          'product_price' => string '12.00' (length=5)
      48754 => 
        array (size=5)
          'product_qty' => string '1' (length=1)
          'product_code' => string '48754' (length=5)
          'product_name' => string 'Minute maid' (length=11)
          'product_price' => string '2.00' (length=4)
      '3545231ES0' => 
        array (size=5)
          'product_qty' => string '1' (length=1)
          'product_code' => string '3545231ES0' (length=10)
          'product_name' => string 'Jagurt' (length=6)
          'product_price' => string '1.00' (length=4)

Answer 1

What's the need of this $val? You could directly update the session value.

if ($_POST['qty_up']=='') {

   foreach ($_SESSION["products"] as $key => &$val) {

       if ($val["product_code"] == $_POST['code']) {
           //$val["product_qty"] += $val["product_qty"];
           $_SESSION["products"][$key]['product_qty'] +=  $val["product_qty"]; // Add this
       }

    }
}
